They should be different.  bpdbjobs shows how much data was backed up based on 
how it looks from a file system standpoint.  bpimagelist shows how that data 
looks on what ever media you store it on.  Block sizes will be different, so it 
will look different.

Also keep in mind that Industrial standards for filesystem data is in 1024 byte 
chunks, but tape is done in 1000 byte chunks.
