BUFFERPOOL with memory vs pages strange behavior
Jared: So, if you specify "memory" instead of "buffers" memory is the maximum buffer size and "start_memory" is the initial memory allocation which, since you did not specify it, defaults to 32K. When you specify "memory" then "extendable" defaults to '1' or ON, and the number of…
