Sounds like a separate bug. SystemMaxUse= to me means, do not use more than 
this, in total, for journals. SystemMaxFileSize= to me means, journal files 
themselves should not grow larger than this.

Interestingly on my system, systemd-journald, with defaults, has created 
several 16MB journal files, nothing larger. Since they can become corrupt, and 
systemd-journald detects this and will then create and use a new journal file, 
it seems like a smaller log size is reasonable. 1G might be a lot of log info 
to lose if it's irreparably corrupt for whatever reason.
