Jon,
Thanks for the advice.  I will try a "dfree" script on tonight's run. 
Here is the df output:

//nitrous/backups      8890112   8334080    556032  94% /mnt/nitrous

And the du output:
7429911	/mnt/nitrous

Yet the files add up to 7,608,228,864 bytes.

-rwxr-xr-x    1 operator disk     3993786368 Dec  1 17:04 Backup.bkf
-rwxr-xr-x    1 operator disk     3614442496 Nov 12 19:46 fullvolume.bkf

So that doesn't match but maybe the dfree script will help nonetheless. 
I'll follow up tomorrow.

Thanks!
Eric
