Michael Dürig commented on OAK-4105:
------------------------------------
TBH I find this 10% error a bit concerning. This means that the main consumer
of approximate size (disk space monitoring {{checkDiskSpace()}}) is also based
on bogus information.
Maybe we should take an entirely different approach:
* remove {{approximateSize}} again
* reduce the lock surface of the {{size()}} method. This should be simple
enough by creating a copy of the readers / writer inside the lock and do the
actual size calculation on that snapshot but outside of the lock.
In that case I would resolve this issue as won't fix and start with a fresh
issue.

> {{FileStore.size()}} is prone to lock contention and should not be called too
> often. As OAK-2879 already introduced an approach for tracking the current
> size of the file store without having to lock, we might as well promote his
