FileVault

It's Tag der Deutschen Einheit in Germany, so a good reason to encrypts some disks. But I hit a snag:
Turning on FileVault requires an additional 4053.9 GB of free disk space to create an encrypted copy of the home folder. Try emptying the Trash or deleting files you don't need.
Why do I need 4TB of free space to encrypt my home folder which weighs currently in at 68GB?
