 #### Segment Cache Size
 
-For better query performance, do not allocate segment data to a Historical in 
excess of the system free memory.  When `free system memory` is greater than or 
equal to `druid.segmentCache.locations`, the more segment data the Historical 
can be held in the memory-mapped segment cache.
+For better query performance, do not allocate segment data to a Historical in 
excess of the system free memory.  When `free system memory` is greater than or 
equal to `druid.segmentCache.locations`, the Historical's memory-mapped segment 
cache can be held in memory, rather than being paged to disk.

Review Comment:
   I think the new wording is a little misleading. Memory-mapping happens even 
if free system memory is less, but not all segments would be memory mapped.
   
   [This 
section](https://druid.apache.org/docs/latest/design/historical/#loading-and-serving-segments-from-cache)
 has a clearer explanation of the segment cache. We can reuse it.
