    4065789703 is 3.78656173 GiB. I was off by a factor of 1.0563673.
    775316349 is 739.399289 MiB. You were off by a factor of 7.39399289.

    Also, for extra fun: 3.9 GiB + 100 MiB is 3.99765625 GiB.

     

    Ok, so, you've only got roughly a 5-to-1 overhead ratio instead of a 39-to-1 overhead ratio.

    My estimates were within an order of magnitude* in any case, which is pretty good since I was just kicking the hornets' nest.

    *Base ten; barely.

    It's actually slightly more than an order of magnitude*

    *Base seven; because I hate being understandable.

    It's closer to a 6.66-to-1 overhead ratio since Ben forgot to strip out unneeded whitespace.
