 Currently, the root path of the configured 'recent' directory is used when
 measuring the available space.

 This might not make sense in situations when partitions are mounted
 elsewhere.
 For example:
 {{{
 /dev/sda1 on /      (just the os)
 /dev/sdb1 on /data  (here the 'recent' folder resides somewhere)
 }}}
 In this case sda1 might be small and sdb1 could be the huge data
 partition.  Thus, the measurement of free space for `/` is useless.

 Suggestion:
 add `CheckSpacePath` property and default to the root of the recent path
 in case it doesn't exist.
