I think he knows it now, because Lucius told him, but didn't actually
feel it happening.

houyhnhnm:

And is the soul divided exactly in two each time?  In that case the
limit would be 0 (but the number of possible splittings would be
infinite).

Does this mean that Voldemort lost half of his soul when the diary was
destroyed, but only 1/4 when Dumbledore destroyed the ring?  Does he
have only 1/64 of his soul left in his body?  Perhaps this is the key
to destroying Voldemort-encourage him to go on making horcruxes until
there is so little left in his body, he turns back into Vapormort. 
*Then* go after the horcruxes.
