gc_elasticity can be 1..16, gc_elasticity*gc_thresh is
the desired number of entries we can live with, after
that point we start to worry about filling the cache.

        On each interval (gc_interval) up to gc_interval/gc_timeout
entries are checked for expiration. With the default parameters,
1/5 of the table on each 60sec, each cache entry lives up to 300sec
by default.

        gc_min_interval 0 means no restrictions for running GC,
may be it is good on load.

this is gc_interval
