Daniel the meaning of "hash size is static" means that once you decide its size, this size is fixed. The meaning of "tunable" means that is the default hash size does not fit your requirements (due traffic conditions), you can choose to set the size you prefer/need, but this allocation is done up on nprobe statup.
