Hi.  While doing a scan of disk usage, I noticed the following oddity.
I have a directory of files (named file.dat for this example) that all
appear as ~1.5GB when using 'ls -l', but that (correctly) appear as ~250KB
files when using 'ls -s' or du commands:

These are probably just sparse files.  Nothing to be alarmed about.

They were created via CIFS.  I thought sparse files were an iSCSI concept, no?
