In practice, if the file is large, scrollbar operations are less
accurate and less smooth anyway, so you can get away with rough
estimations very well without further compromising the scroll quality.
However the smaller the file the better a scrollbar can work and that
is why accurate size calculations are especially beneficial for small
files rsp. well choosen small parts of a file, such as at the top and
the bottom.
