It's used as a guide (amongst various other heuristics) for when it is
preferrable to buffer up small operations versus writing directly into wc
(slow) memory. Without knowing the cachesize, it presumes a small cache and so
will do more operations inplace. It should just disable a small performance
optimisation.</pre>
