-      * Autopacking (Full only).  Automatic packing of the Full
-        storage is implemented in a separate thread.  Autopacking is
-        like "classic" pack except that it doesn't normally do garbage
-        collection.  Since it only gets rid of old object revisions,
-        it should be faster than a classic pack.  You can specify
-        packing policies, such as how often to autopack, how far back
-        in the past to pack to, and how often you want the autopack
-        thread to perform a full gc classic pack.
