Good hint! I backuped my 512mb RS-MMC, reformatted with VFAT32 using 1kb cluster size, and restored it. Before it used 8kb cluster size, which was a big waste with map tiles. My maps repository shrank by 35%. Before my MMC was >90% full, now it is only 75% full.

Before (8kb sector):

/media/mmc1 $ du -ks .??* *
144 .archive
8 Audio clips # this is an empty directory!
46768 backups
4480 Documents

After (1kb sector):

/media/mmc1 $ du -ks .??* *
86 .archive
1 Audio clips # this is an empty directory!
46675 backups
