As you fill up this filesystem, you're going to see decreased performance,
as the reserved space isn't just "insurance" for root processes, it's also
essential for managing fragmentation. This doesn't apply, as much, if you
are just adding new files, without ever modifying or deleting the old
ones, or if you are working with a static file set altogether.
