Anyone else seeing the "Compression Ratio" as printed on
paper (postscript) labels being wildly inaccurate under
2.4.4p2?
An example, transcribed from last night's dump:
Total Size: 19547.7 MB
Tape Used (%) 63.1 %
Compression Ratio: 254.9 %
Mine are correct -- running 2.4.4p3. The oldest postscript labels I have near to me, are from the 2.4.4p2-200405010 snapshot and they are fine too. I have probably some older labels offsite, but not easily reachable.
Try upgrading.
This seems to have started occurring sometime since 2.4.4 (not sure now whether 2.4.4p1 behaved, but I know 2.4.4 was good.) Anyone?
