      Currently, on 64 bit systems, the globally shared task queues has 128k entries per thread.

      This makes a 1 MB array per thread per task queue set.

      In most situations this amount of memory is not used to the max at all; so maybe decreasing the default size(s) is possible.

      There is the thought that maybe using less memory might use the (faster) local overflow queues more.
