800000 is actually a little too HIGH; there can be up to a 40%
increase due to transmission encoding; 700000 would be better. Given
that, there's no reason to have more than ONE rar file, with Agent
breaking it up as necessary. The general limit to a single post is 1MB
(everything included), so if it takes 5 or 10 or 20 parts, that's what
it takes.
I wouldn't bother creating a multi-part rar as well as using Agent to
break things up; that's just duplication of effort. The only advantage
is that it's easier to REpost a rar-part because it's a separate file.
In this group, however, in ten years I've never seen only a single
part of anything reposted. It's generally all or nothing!
For things like design collections, on the other hand, multi-part rars
are occasionally useful, because if parts are missing it's usually
possible to retrieve some designs from the parts that are there.
