I lost almost 1GB to 2GB that I have set. Is that it?
Before 2GB: 4456MB
After 2GB : 1506MB
Difference : 2950MB
Edit: I have discovered. This problem happens when I change the block size (Both Disk and Volume Editions). In default everything works fine.

Yup I get the same issue. I am guessing it comes from the over head of having a smaller block size? Would like feed back on this one, support.

Correct, smaller block size causes more additional memory consumption.

This is a bug or a feature?

It is not a bug. Smaller block size -> more blocks -> more memory to maintain block information

@ Support and vbcrayon:
Yea. I kinda figured that out, but wasn't sure if I was right. This could be consider confusing to the more avg. Joe out there... should I go on and add a request to make this a bit more ... um... easier to read/understand type thing? It wont be high on the list by any means as I think it was covered in the "How tos" section on the website.

later we'll display "overhead" value. Also we may hidden some settings such as "Block Size" for normal users to simplify the operations.
