Well, the default values are 4, 100, 2000 respectively for the values
you are using. You might want to take that into account when you
decide how you set it. Another factor is the size of the cache (set
in /usr/vice/etc/cacheinfo).
A while ago I did some computation for Linux-AFS to figure out how
much ram is used, relating these values to each other. You can try
to find that in the linux-afs discuss meeting.
I guess that the question is: what do you think your bottleneck is
w.r.t. AFS performance? How you configure afsd depends upon the
answer to that question.
