over 65K files with width 181px
181px images are tipically made when 180px images are "bad", with the
squid/scaler refusing to deliver the latest version. Adding 1px there
forces a regeneration of the file, solving the issue.
Going up to 65K seems too much, though.

That's correct in theory. In practice (for uploads using
Special:Upload at least) the user is redirected to the file
description page after a successful upload, which contains a thumb of
the file of a given size (800px?), which is then immediately generated
on demand :) . Special:UploadWizard has similar behavior: the success
page contains 200px(?) thumbs of all the images the user uploaded.

Plus another tiny one at the file history section.
I remember seeing a change about rounding the requested image size some
months ago, so the "request any size" may not be true any longer.
