Thinking yet again, I think the current behavior is better. Reporting
the smallest size would be appropriate _only_ if all files are being
replicated with equal count. in situations where some files are
replicated 2 times, some 3 times and some with no extra replication,
the total 'size' cannot be deterministically calculated without
actually filling the servers with different types of files.
