Just a bit more information on this.

As I couldn't understand if that was an AMD64 issue as illogical as that might
be, I decided to put that to the test. So, I pull out an other AMD64 server
and it's running 3.8, same fsize and bsize, one drive, etc.

Use rsync to mirror the content and the results are consistent with the i386.
So, that prove it's not that at a minimum.

So, the source is 4.4GB and expand to 7.7GB.

I have no logical explications what so ever.

You have been told an explanation (sparse files).

Yes you are right and thanks to "Tom Cosgrove" that reminded me of that over look part in your previous answer, I did this again with:

rsync -e ssh -aSuqz --delete /var/www/sites/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/www/sites

instead of:

rsync -e ssh -auqz --delete /var/www/sites/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/www/sites

and it shrink to:

/dev/wd1a     19.7G    3.9G   14.8G    21%    /var/www/sites

from:

/dev/wd1a     19.7G    8.0G   10.7G    43%    /var/www/sites

Thanks for your patience with me!

That's a lots of waisted space for sure.

I am learning... sometime slow, but I am.

My next step is now trying to see where that's from.

Thanks

Daniel
