Hi,

Just updated to latest Armory and Bitcoin software.
Noticed that Armory has a single "blocks" file, sized at 38.9GB.

The "blocks" file time stamp gets updated after exiting Armory.
My current backup technique will not be practical.
Note: I believe there were several thousand files with the previous version I was using.

Should it be this way, or did I do something incorrect ?

Thanks in advance

That's the DB format for 0.93. Will change in 0.94

Do you know if there will be multiple, incremental files, in 0.94 ?
Cheers.

0.94 as it stands is still using an individual file for the block data, and it's far from complete data anyway. Goatpig will be able to tell you exactly what data is available from the new format.

This is what a 0.94 fullnode DB looks like. Hope this answers your question.
