Are you reading from "Size:" or "Size on disk:"? If there is a  
significant difference between the two, then that may indicate the  
presence of "sparse files", in which case you will want to set  
sparse=yes in your Fileset's Options{} block. It may also be a signal  
that you have compression enabled on the disk, which you can check by  
right-clicking on the folder (or suspect files within it), selecting  
"Advanced", and seeing if anything has "Compress contents to save  
disk space" ticked. Compressed files will often show with a different  
non-black text color in Windows Explorer.

Another thing to do is to go to bconsole and try:
        list files jobid=139
And see if there are any files on there which your filset "vegaSet"  
may be catching which you aren't aware of or are outside the folder  
you were looking at in Windows.
