Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. First locate the IBF size-estimation code and its tests, then determine whether using the maximum file size meets the stated false-positive-rate goal and compare the resulting size and compression behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In order to gurantee a fpr for every file, I could change from using the mean the maximum... This would increase the size, but compression should be even smaller.
