Rootfs filesize is consistent but seems large, can I trust it?

SD:
2nd opffs try filesize 222MB

The size is OK, because rootfs might be 256M, but it's compressed because of UBI, so it's not linear, could go either way. Also, a tarball also has stuff not normally reported, like names and possibly metadata. Also, it's a tar not a tar.gz, so it's almost guaranteed to be larger.

Optfs looks bad. I'm assuming it's 900M, not 200. I'd rerun backup, it's possible something went wrong. You did check the obvious avenues, like free space on SD, stuff like that?
