Hello!

Just decided to run "perf top" on a web server which seemed to be
CPU-bound and saw this at the top:

I see this just became configurable, but probably 4 bits (16 buckets?) is
probably a bit small for the default, no?  (hlist_head is just a pointer,
4 or 8 bytes per bucket, so the default is 128 bytes on x64 :))

I guess it really needs to auto-scale...
