Hello Fellow FreeBSD'ers

I wonder why when installing FreeBSD, when systinstall starts up, and asks
for partion (or slice) sizes, if you have a 20 or 30 GB drive, you can
tell it to use 10GB for say /usr or make a filesystem called data and tell
it to be 10 or 12 GB.

Is there some sort of limitation on sizes of filesystems?

TIA
