I have no idea what it could mean in the context of a batch.  To me,
a total is a total of something, so I thought you were doing sums
of numeric columns or something.  'total_length' and 'sequence_length'
both make immediate sense to me, but total definately does not.
'total_size' would also be ok.

Isn't naming things fun? <wry grin>

I'm glad to hear you checked before checking things in, and I'm
sad to hear that Evan did not, though I guess Evan is something
of a BDF-as-long-as-he-wants for ZPT....
