This is just a threshold value, not a start or end address :)

I shouldn't matter since I remember we already discussed this previously 
but I can't sort out this from those emails now.

Allen,

Could you reexplain this?

Think about we just provide read ops, so they're not changed based on my 
experiential.

I think this is a good idea so I will go there and thank you.
