Regarding chunk size growth factor

Hi all,

 

I am developing an application using PHP - Mysql and memcached (for
caching).

 

I wanted to know more about the chunk size growth factor which is set to
1.25 by default.

We change this by using the -f option.

 

What does this factor mean?

What exactly will happen if we increase it?

Will this increase the slab size to more than 1 MB?

What all values can be set to this (1.25, 1.50, etc.)

 

Please let me know.

 

I have set the chunk size to 32 KB in the PHP memcache client.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

Ajinkya
