In [Commentat. Math. Univ. Carol. 38, No. 2, 349-360 (1997; Zbl 0886.54007)] the authors generalized total boundedness and compactness of metric spaces to (1) \(X\) is GTB if for every \(\varepsilon>0\) there is an \(\varepsilon\)-dense subset of size less than \(d(X)\) and (2) \(X\) is GK if every open cover has a subcover of size less than \(d(X)\). These notions lead to cardinals of countable cofinality: if \(X\) is GTB then \(d(X)\) has countable cofinality. A joint result of the authors and J. Pelant improves this to: \(d(X)\) has countable cofinality if{}f \(X\) can be metrized by a GTB metric. The authors present a fairly complete picture, which results on `ordinary' total boundedness and compactness remain valid and which do not in this new context.
