> Are you sure it's 2^64?  The rx_call->rnext member is the source of the p=
acketRead counter, and it is type afs_uint32, so it should roll over at 2^3=
2 (4294967296 packets).  As far as I can tell, nothing would change in this=
 regard in 1.8.x.   However, that should be plenty to move 6TB at 800-1400 =
bytes per packet.

Sorry for the error in my mental math - I read 6TB, but was thinking 6GB.  =
So of course 2^32 packets is not "plenty" enough for your volume, as Jeffre=
y correctly pointed out in his earlier reply.  Unfortunately I didn't see h=
is reply until much later, so I apologize for the confusion.
