Hello once again,
I was wondering whether if there are any libraries that I can include
to call vac and unvac directly from my C code. Currently I am

Hello All,
I was using venti/write to store off small data sets which are less
than a datablock in size earlier. But now I have started using vac for
larger data but I have come across this problem:
Writing the same datablock to the venti server used to give me the
same score always. But vac does

Hello All,
I want to store some big files on venti. size range around 200MB. Is

"write: input too big: max block size is 57344"
I was wondering may be if increase the block size in arena partition
