Actually, they were defined as 4000 Mb,  I've slightly increased it to 4100 
Mb, just to give a little more headroom.

That was set to 10, which was the largest number I could imagine it needing.

I'm running 2.5, so the first one is the one I've checked against.

Troubleshooting is incredibly slow because it's not a problem discovered by 
amcheck, so i have to wait 24 hours every time to see whether I've improved 
the situation.  I'm getting worried, now, because in a few more days I will 
be overwriting the only Level 0 for /home.  If I haven't cracked this in a 
couple more days I'll have to burn that dump to DVD to avoid losing it.
