lots of 320kb vmdk files after vcb backup

    I've noticed that VCB is now creating a heap of 320kb vmdk files for full vm backups (snapshot based )

    eg.

    scsi0-1-0-vmname_1-s001.vmdk to scsi0-1-0-vmname_1-s076.vmdk are all around 2G, but scsi0-1-0-vmname_1-s055.vmdk up to s077 are all 320kb.

    Is this just due to unused space within the HDD size allocation?
