Yes I was referring to the data portion which is kmalloc'ed. That is also why I'm interested in ksize because a priori we don't know exactly how big it's going to be. However, we do know that statistically 1500 will dominate.
I'm not interested in ksize for kmem_cache at all. So in fact we could have something simpler that's based on kmalloc's rounding algorithm instead.
