I coming from an earlier version that had the arguments first setup was as a number, then used in several places including the tx cache size and didn't catch that new 3rd definition were used as I moved the patch forward to try on the latest git updates before sending.
There is also a queue sizing formula in the comment that is not obvious.

Just a thought. I'd like Pravin to review this as I don't know this code as well as him.
