I bought the other day from Fotoimpex few 1 liter pouches of Adofix PII. I used otherwise Fomafix or Ilford Rapid Fixer.
Ilford Rapid Fixer is meant for 24 films, as per their doc. I do 2-baths fixing and test every few rolls or sheets clearing time on a small cut of sheet. Typically Ilford is still good after 24 rolls but fixer is cheap so i don't push to the limit, discard and mix a new stock.
Adofix PII mentions 10 films capacity (by liter). I have fixed now 10 rolls and cut a bit of Fomapan sheet, pour some fixer and it clears in 35s. So I think Adox are very conservative in their instructions.
(again, I do 2-baths anyway).
