If there's a definitive source for the information, like a research paper or a 
Wikipedia entry that does a great job explaining it, then feel free to link to 
it. We can always update dead links when they arise.

If there's not a good place to link to that has the information, then yes, 
spelling it out would be great. Basically, someone reading these docs should 
have enough information available (directly or through links) to help them 
understand the feature even if it doesn't make them an expert in the topic. My 
concern with the docs right now is that I have no idea what value to put there 
(Does it have to be positive? Nonzero? Is there an upper bound?) because I 
can't find an explanation about what that value actually controls.
