Contradiction? Anyone?

@Mag Gam: In other words: No, you can't, sorry.

However, in dependence of what you *really* need, you could create two or
more file systems of lower size and mount some in places, where many files
are stored. Yes, I know, that this is sub-optimal - but better take a
sub-optimal solution than no solution ;)
