The Zlib baked into FreeBSD is Zlib 1.2.4 even on 9.1R.
However, Zlib has gone to 1.2.7 sometime ago after stepping through 1.2.5,
1.2.6 and 1.2.7 with bug fixes.
Is there any reason for not using Zlib 1.2.7?
Thanks.

How about crawling the metadata, locating each block

As a result of this past Black Friday weekend, I now enjoy a true abundance
of disk space, for the first time in my life.
I wanna make a full backup, on a weekly basis, of my main system's shiny
new 1TB drive onto another 1TB drive that I also picked up cheap back on
Black Friday.

It could be more optimum. :-)

In the man page for restore(8) I see the following:
The -r flag ... can be detrimental to one's health if
not used carefully (not to mention the disk). An example:
newfs /dev/da0s1a
mount /dev/da0s1a /mnt
cd /mnt
