+	As result, the table grows if load increases and shrinks when
+	load decreases in the range of 2^8 - 2^conn_tab_bits (module
+	parameter).
+	The value is a shift count where positive values select
+	buckets = (connection hash nodes << value) while negative
+	values select buckets = (connection hash nodes >> value). The
+	positive values reduce the collisions and reduce the time for
+	lookups but increase the table size. Negative values will
+	tolerate load above 100% when using smaller table is
+	preferred. If using NAT connections consider increasing the
+	value with one because they add two nodes in the hash table.
+
+	Example:
+	4: grow if load goes above 6% (buckets = nodes * 16)
+	-2: grow if load goes above 400% (buckets = nodes / 4)
