This param specifies the number of objects the usage data is being written to. A higher number means that load spreads across, though shouldn't be too high as reading *all* usage data requires iterating through all these objects. In any case, changing that param may and will change the placement of the data for specified users, so reading older usage data for specific user might not work after changing it. Note that usage data is written asynchronously periodically, and you should only want to update it if you have performance issues there.
