What is the "size" of the dormant chunk cache?

I've tried searching both the forums and the web at large for this, but it's tricky as most results are parts of log files.

 

In the forgeChunkLoading.cfg file there is a line to setup a dormantChunkCache. The comments just state that you should "specify the size of that cache." But I'm not clear on what 'size' means. In other words, is it the # of chunks to keep cached? Is it an absolute file size? If so; is it in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, etc?

Chunks... pretty straight forward if it was anything different it would of been stated.

Thanks!

 

As a cache can really be anything - it's an arbitrary temporary grouping - I might suggest slightly altering the wording to "Specify the number of chunks to maintain in the cache." That would certainly remove any ambiguity.
