Since current pool size is 4KB and there is pool_header in pool,
we can't allocate 4KB block from pool.
And if support 1KB block, only 3KB of 4KB can be actually used.
I think 512 bytes / 4KB (1/8) is good ratio.

Do you mean increase pool size?

How about adding configure option like server-mode?

SMALL_REQUEST_THRESHOLD  1024   // 2x
POOL_SIZE  (16*1024)    // 4x
ARENA_SIZE  (2*1024*1024)   // 8x, and same to huge page size.

Make sense.
