In order to find out the increase in object count I would use the node list in Centera Viewer and check what the effective increase in object count is.
I'm not 100% sure but would expect the pool capacity output to show you the clip and the file.
As for the increase in clips you should really only see one clip per file. The embedding has nothing to do with the clip count. There is one per clip written to Centera.
The frnd_pp pool shows a 1-2-1 relationship between clips and files. cata500prd shows 11 Million Clips and 5.9 Million Files. Only half of the clips have an associated blob.
I would open the node list, display the column used object count. If you happen to have a stable amount of used objects, write your object and see if the object count increases by 2 (if embedded blob). (right click on the node to choose the displayed columns)
Should you not have a stable object count I can also send you a profile that you can used on my internet Centera's. I can then look into the clips and see if your object was really embedded or not.
the rfnd_pp pool is the one which has been loaded via a CUA
I'm currently halfway in loading the same files via my own Java/XAM program - I need both ways to be able to compare access performance on a large dataset - but I'm afraid that the results will be biased if the XAM solution needs to lookup/load 2 clips instead of 1
Hi Jeroen Are you writing to the same pool with your XAM Application? As said, I would inspect the CDF with the CLI Tools (read the CDF) that would show you if the blob is embedded as the CDF would directly containt the base64 encoded blob in the CDF. Contact me on holger.jakob@informatio.ch if you need a copy of the CLI Tools. I can also provide a short description on how to use them.

when I do "show pool capacity" it returns the following list :
rfnd_pp 10 MB 1,297 GB -- 21588013 21584420
cata500prd 8 MB 328 GB -- 11912310 5956087
default -- 0 GB -- 0 0
ConsoleArchive -- 0 GB -- 0 0
SystemArchive -- 0 GB -- 0 0
Total -- 1,626 GB -- 33500505 27540507
And Centera viewer confirms a total Object count of about 75,000,000 objects used

Embedded Blob settings work correctly as intended, but additional C-Clips get created by XAM API to store Non-Binding fields.
For more info, I can refer to some documentation from Stuart Graham :
