Dmitry,

I don't really agree with the default being the fixed value 4Gb, I think the 
only time it's right is for an underlying filesystem of around 16-24Gb so I 
basically never used the default even before this patch. Except, occasionally, 
for very small file systems; where it was effectively infinite. IMHO the 25% 
value would be a good guess for any new user in any unknown situation.

But, you've seen your other users' use-cases so I have no problem deferring to 
your decision and continuing to use the option.

Robert.

IMO it is a reasonable request and means that the user wants the entire virtual 
drive to filled up using the percentage by percentage method rather than the 
maximum free space method.

Yes, You are right. But I don't know should we change default behaviour. I've 
already received one letter from subscribed users. I think I'll set old default.
