| Description | Operations and data structures that use AMC segments (buffer allocation, condemning, scanning, reclaiming) have a per-segment overhead. But there is no way to control this overhead. |
| Analysis | Allow clients to set the minimum segment size by passing an MPS_KEY_EXTEND_BY keyword argument to mps_pool_create_k. (The actual segment size will of course have to be rounded up to the arena alignment.) |
| How found | inspection |
| Evidence | None as yet. |
