It is presently hard-coded in src/ipc/mem/Pages.cc maxObjectSize().

It is the size of in-memory pages used to share the rock storage objects
between processes. Thus the small default. I seem to recall you had an
insanely high avg object size though, so your particular use case should
be okay.

Just remember that src/ipc/mem/Pages.cc is the general shared-memory
page settings. So affects all shared caches, not just the one rock dir.

The pages size should probably be linked to these. Although it is fairly
common to have a large maximum_object_size_in_memory which would ruin
the mem-mapped paging benefits for most users. cc'ing squid-dev so it
can get some attention.
