Here's some of my usual nitpicking ;)

The \- is not needed in these two cases, as it's just a hyphen. You
do need it for the option name, though. Also please start the
sentence with a capital letter and end with period.

You should start new sentences on a new line in the man page. The
same thing about the hyphen applies.

Write MB in both cases, not MB and Mb.
