This is indeed the case.

This option is not specified in imapd.conf so I infer that the default
value is used.

In any case, irrespective of format, I deleted all the files in
/var/lib/imap/quota/?/  pertaining to quotas set on sub folders. Then
ran sudo -u cyrus /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/quota -f.  I discovered that I
needed to run the quota -f command twice before the % usage would
calculate correctly.  I will now transfer the new meta data to the new
server and see what happens.

Thank you.
