Yes, I know that... that's why I asked for an out of the box clean server 
and I was moving domains over, using CPX for everything, one user and one 
domain at a time...

At the end, was my biggest domain (insulators.com and 
pictures.insulators.com) They are also the most complex, with POP/SMTP 
accounts (like mine :-), loads of PHP and mySQL scripts, dynamic database 
updates, etc. The domain could no co-exist on two servers at once, like 
most domains during a migration. So, I left it for the end, made a tarball 
of /www/vhosts/insulators.com and /www/vhosts/pictures.insulators.com and 
just dumped them on the other server. I suspected there could be some "hard 
coded" paths in some of the PHP code, and also perhaps some 
user/group/protection problems, and I could not risk it at that point. All 
or nothing. Pull the plug and switch...

Perhaps when things calm down, I will move it into the CPX model...

You say:

Well, if this "met CPX installation prerequisites" it still would have not 
reduced the number of files... so... the issue would still be present?

Thanks. I'll be patient knowing it is a bug, and it will get some attention 
eventually... I just hope I can put off using CPX until then (I still have 
about 30 users to put back... most of them don't know then can't access 
their files yet ;-)

Holding patiently... (I would like the assurance that you can reproduce it, 
but I understand your priorities and time allotments)
