Does that mean that the registry can still be full after pruning, or
not?

So "hard" should mean "medium"? Would you then add a "really hard" limit
as well?

I would expect a hard limit to be exactly that - the maximum that won't
be exceeded.

And if a stupid user, like me, sets it too low for his own good, well,
tough luck, don't go frobbing variables you don't understand, kiddo.
