+		This specifies the initial length of pid table, it shall be
+		power of two. Note this doesn't prevent the system from
+		expanding it if more pids are needed. If the max number
+		of threads in your system is known by design, setting this
+		to it can avoid unnecessary reallocations of the table after
+		boot.
