Yeah, I was just thinking about that last night, and I should probably change that. Originally I did it because I thought it might affect the speed of directory walking, so I was trying to make some of the files large to be more "real world". I've just tested it, and in practice file system doesn't make much difference, so I've fixed that now:

Thanks. I had bumped the number of files, thinking it would make things more interesting, and it filled my disk.

Regards

Antoine.
