Dear Maintainer,

It was necessary to defragment a 2 Tb disk with 15,592,612 files.

With a 32 Gb swap file, the computer froze somewhere at 9,000,000.
With a 64 Gb swap file, the computer froze somewhere at 14,500,000.
With a 94 Gb swap file, it finally ended normally without
the computer freezing.

It would like e4defrag to send a message about this when there is a lack
of memory, give advice on how to overcome this problem, and not hang up
the computer.
