Probably incorrect unit of measure in the table column "Raw Size"

[Artanias]

Hello, thank you very much for your contribution!

I have started to recalculate your results and in the table column "Raw Size" I think that some of the results must have unit of measure GiB instead of GB.

For example for datasets Thunderbird, HDFS and BGL:

>>> import os
>>> bytes = os.path.getsize("bgl/BGL.log") 
>>> bytes
743185031
>>> bytes_to_MiB = bytes / 1024 / 1024
>>> bytes_to_MiB
708.7564764022827
# In the table 708.76MB

>>> bytes = os.path.getsize("thunderbird/Thunderbird.log")
>>> bytes
31788301041
>>> bytes_to_GiB = bytes / 1024 / 1024 / 1024
>>> bytes_to_GiB
29.605162368156016
# In the table 29.60GB

>>> bytes = os.path.getsize("hdfs/HDFS.log")
>>> bytes
1577982906
>>> bytes_to_GiB = bytes / 1024 / 1024 / 1024
>>> bytes_to_GiB
1.4696111027151346
# In the table 1.47GB

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. But what is the difference of GB vs GiB?

[Artanias]

Hi, one GB is defined as 1000³ (1,000,000,000) bytes and one GiB as 1024³ (1,073,741,824) bytes. That means one GB equals 0.93 GiB. The first defined by International System of Units and the second defined by International Electronical Commission in 1998.
