That seems like way too many to be filesystem metadata hits. I woul
dhave expected the same number of hits as there are AGs in the
filesytem. What you want is the XFSB string in the first 4
bytes of a sector, with the next sector having XAGF as the first
four bytes....

I'm not going to look at 19000 potential hits. Narrow it down to
likely candidates first whithe the sector location filter...
