Yeah I just noticed today.

To some extent it is explained here:

Note: by default, maximum profile size is only 30 MB and Windows will
not allow you to increase it. For me it was too small.

With gpedit.msc you can increase it by following suggestions here:

As with Samba you probably won't use gpedit.msc, but the Policy Editor
and NTConfig.pol, you will have to edit %SystemRoot%\inf\winnt.adm (or
some other file Policy Editor is using, I don't quite remember), and
look for "MaxProfileSize", and increase this size.
