Comment (by kallisti5):

 Axel:
 > I would make the default size dependent on the size of memory: if < 1GB
 *2 is fine, above that, I would think that the same amount as the amount
 of memory is sufficient.

 Mostly I was trying to avoid having any "set" numbers. But yeah.. 16GB * 2
 seems a little silly. Making the change now

 > If you don't absolutely need floating point computation, don't use it in
 the kernel. In this case /4 respectively /10 should do the trick here.
 Good point.  Re-factoring now
