Shouldn't it be called a ceramic Amphora?

Wow, I've never played on a fortress that huge.

I exaggerated. The example given was a large fort, but i've gotten close to that number in a personal challenge to make everything out of glass. Out of habit, I still ramp-cleared the area, resulting in two stones per tile. Since I never make stone crafts (it's basically cheating when you can trade useful goods like prepared food) or catapults, all that stone just cluttered my hallways.

I think that hauling DO give stat increase, as my dumpers get VERY strong with only running around dumping stones.
How are their social skills?
Peasants are working all day round (as i cheatingly used an ALL_ACTIVE magic tag) and have dabbling socials for five years since embark - and they are very mighty for now.
I think every one of 9 my peasants (the first immigrant wave) have hauled about 3000-4000 rock pieces.

And -1 FPS per every thousand units.
What?
I've noticed every thousand units of anything decreases FPS permanently. Even with dwarves standing on break (=no pathfinding).

That's tested and approved by somebody in another topic.
