Is my reasoning above invalid? If yes, please clarify what is wrong: According to my calculations, my proposed 768 default - which is just slightly larger than a previous 600 - should also allow having ~20 CPUs, although the systems with 20 CPUs are significantly less popular than i.e. 16. Also, t

Also, the uneven (unrelated to the power of 2's) values of 600 weren't really
