Source (3.4-STABLE):
HASHINFO openinfo = {
4096, /* bsize */
32, /* ffactor */
256, /* nelem */
2048 * 1024, /* cachesize */
NULL, /* hash() */
0 /* lorder */
};
Is it a matter of just increasing the cache size to, say,
4096 * 2048, leaving the other values as they are, or should all
values be increased in conjunction?
