How full we let the table get before we resize. Knuth says .8 is
good -- higher causes us to probe too much, though saves memory.
However, we go with .5, getting better performance at the cost of
more space (a trade-off densehashtable explicitly chooses to make).
Feel free to play around with different values, though, via
max_load_factor() and/or set_resizing_parameters().
