There's a difference between arenas and
arena partitions. There's no reason not to
use a single big arena partition:
--rw-r----- S 0 rsc rsc 16727702528 Mar 25 21:54 /dev/sdC0/v.arenas
Internally, Venti will chop it into smallish
arenas in units suitable for backup to tape
or CD-ROM. The default is 500MB. If you
are planning to back up to CD-ROM you might
want to use 650MB or so.
