 Replying to [comment:9 waddlesplash]:

package version is 3.0-4.

 Same for me, but it fails to create archive from folder with a lot of
 small files about 10GB total on 32 bit system. It seems to load file
 structure to RAM.

 HPKG created successfully with `package create -0 -i
 /path/to/stub.PackageInfo /boot/Backup.hpkg`, but extracting failed with
 `Error: Malformed TOC strings section`. Attempt to put it in packages
 folder cause `KERN: package_daemon [3860316314:   945] failed to init
 package for file "Backup.hpkg"`.
