Hello--

I'm looking for information or rationale behind the "expansion"
that's in BUF_MEM_grow() and BUF_MEM_grow_clean().  This is where
my request to grow the buffer by x number bytes turns into a
request for x + 33% bytes.

Is there concern about a buffer overflow somewhere?  paranoia?
trying to limit the need for subsequent calls into malloc() ?

Thanks for the help!
