Hi,

I thought I would mention that my first run of my 6TB archiving project
has been successful.  It is to a set of 4TB HDDs which I formatted with
exFAT.  (I know, but it's widely compatible.)

I whipped up some scripts that are helping me with the slice sizes and
such.  I'll share them in a little while once I've got them all touched
up.  It saves 1.29 million inodes, and used approximately 1.2GB RAM
while doing so.

I'm going to expand the set of data included, so the next run will add
about 400,000 inodes.

Thanks for your work on dar, Denis!  It is a fantastic tool.
