I often use the file system as a quick-and-easy database. :-)

I don't know, offhand. I wound up using a defrag tool that didn't respect 
the boundaries, so it fragmented my MFT. Unfortunately, I did this on my 
boot disk, which is far more difficult to backup, reformat, and restore 
file-by-file.

The confusion from
 >> How much of your MFT uses those 750K files?
is that the MFT is the subject in that sentence, and the sentence implies it 
is using 750K files. A better way to phrase it would be

"How much of the MFT space do the files use?"
or
"How much of the MFT space is used by the files?"

Then "files" is the subject, and the files use the MFT space, which makes 
more sense.
