Reason for this limitation?

[Karl Denninger]

In the current RPI2 images the filesystem definitions used to include:

md /tmp mfs rw,noatime,-s30m 0 0

Now its:

tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,mode=1777,size=30m 0 0

Why the limitation, and why set so small on a 1Gb RAM system?

The former limit was rational because the allocation was fixed on boot,
but tmpfs is dynamic.

Is this a historical accident or is there a logical point in that sort
of restrictive limit?
