Hello, I'm new to DPDK and have noticed that documentation for rte_mempool_create states that the optimal size for a number of elements in the pool is n = (2^q-1). But in many examples it is simply set to 2^q (multi_process/simple_mp/main.c uses 2014, for example). This is a bit confusing. Is 2^q - 1 really the optimal number but examples don't use it, or maybe the documentation for the mempool is wrong, or...? If anyone could shed some light on this that'd be helpful.
