It is on reiserfs, so I guess that would make sense if backupPC gets its
usage info through du

On the status page the pool information is reported as

When I run df -h /dev/sda3 (the raid backuppc is on) I get:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 1.9T 222G 1.6T 12% /var/lib/backuppc
This means that the status page reports the pool file being 5G larger
than the space being used on the drive. This backup machine's pool was
originally rsync'd off of our old backupPC machine.
This could mean that I am missing some data, some hard links are double
counted, or that backupPC is doing some sort of rounding.
Any ideas which one(s) are more likely?
What filesystem is your pool on? I know at least reiserfs, by default,
stores the tails of files in the tree, although du will still report a full
block being used for the file. On my system, backuppc reports that the
pool is 16.19GB and df reports 15G. It just means the filesystem is
efficient.
