I don't think we should push this if we already know we wanna do something 
different. That said, I am not convinced the numbers are good defaults. At the 
same time I don't have any numbers here do you have anything to back these 
defaults up?

> The current segments to threads allocation algorithm always allocates one 
> thread per segment. This is detrimental to performance in case of skew in 
> segment sizes since small segments also get their dedicated thread. This can 
> lead to performance degradation due to context switching overheads.
>  
> A better algorithm which is cognizant of size skew would have better 
> performance for realistic scenarios
