title: memcached max 100820 items per slab limit?
body: <p>We store a lot of small fixed length values in memcached, and I constantly observe how memcached used memory stops growing not reaching its defined memory limit. Usually it stops growing upon reaching 100820 items in the smallest slab. I tried playing with -f factor to no avail: growth stops upon reaching 100820 items in one slab.</p>
  
  <p>Is there anyway to amend the 100820 items limit? I can't find info in regards to it anywhere.</p>
  
  <p>Detailed statistics is below.</p>
