Thanks for your insight which verbosely matches the spartan 300. :)

Yeah, this makes sense and is good to know.

Good to know, too.
So the SSD-harddrive-with-not-enough-space-battle may continue. :) I
will also try to find a nice place on the wiki to docu the info.
Thanks and cheers Karsten

Other funny sizes probably come from the thumbnails shown on the file
page itself. For example, for this random file:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bruxelles_à_travers_les_âges_(1884)_(14740799976).jpg
The main big thumbnail is 796×600 pixels, and the small thumbnail
under "File history" is 120×90.
Additionally, for every thumbnail, thumbnails with 1.5× and 2× sizes
are generated to be used on devices with high-resolution screens.
And additionally, you can set an arbitrary size for any thumbnail used
in an article, and MediaWiki will dutifully generate a thumbnail of
that size.
As far as I know there is currently no option to disallow generation
of thumbnails of arbitrary sizes, and limit it to some preset list.
