As far as I can tell, nothing would change in this regard in 1.8.x.   However, that should be plenty to move 6TB at 800-1400 bytes per packet.

Sorry for the error in my mental math - I read 6TB, but was thinking 6GB.  So of course 2^32 packets is not "plenty" enough for your volume, as Jeffrey correctly pointed out in his earlier reply.  Unfortunately I didn't see his reply until much later, so I apologize for the confusion.
