I have one in a directory that's over 18 megs. That's for most of a class B though. It's pretty variable, depending on the state of the network. more vulns = larger file. I don't think that there is any present limit, other than what your OS can handle.
One nice thing is that NBEs are text, and very compressible. That 18 meg file compresses to 516kb with stock "zip" on os x :) On 10/4/07, jamjam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello, > > Generally when we scan an entire class C our resulting nbe file is usually > about 1.5 MB.
