These paramters are used to control cache loader IO (notably keep 
it low enough to allow other work to be done).

loader_files=<number>

    specifies number of files scanned by cache loader per 
    iteration

loader_sleep=<time>

    time to sleep after each iteration

loader_threshold=<time>

    if iteration takes more than specified time, number of files 
    scanned per iteration is decreased by factor of 2 (once 
    number of files reaches 1, sleep time is increased by factor 
    of 2)

Default values are:

    loader_files=100
    loader_sleep=50ms
    loader_threshold=200ms
