It's probably related to how the filesystem works  :-)
Sure, the Mailman archive contains many files, at least on per EMail in
the archive, but 1/3 overhead is still a lot, I'd say.

I have no idea how this KVM virtualization is organized. Are the VM's
sitting inside LV's which could easily be grown ?  Anyhow, the current
Mailman archive is slightly less than 30 GByte net, thus I'd say let's
have another 20 GByte so we can take distro packages and other stuff
into account and are still on the safe side for a while.

Cheers,
	Martin.
