I performed a restore of some files and realized that the current kilobytes read wrong size, which can be?

There is a difference between what is read and what is wrote to disk.

Yes, There is a difference between the two

If I have 10 1MB files, on my tape and I want to restore the last one - it will read through all 10 files and then only write the last one back to restore it ...

So it will show 10 MB read , but the restore will only be 1 MB in size ...

Yep, seems to be the cause ...

I just backed up about 101 files that were 723 bytes each, a total of about 160k

I restored one of them  ...

From trylogs ...

Kilobytes 160  (same as current kb read in gui)

Files 1              (same as files read in gui)
