idlexp value increases the index slot range by a power of 2. The largest
Did you mean "to a power of 2", or do you really mean "by a power of 2"?
It increases by a power of 2, as documented in the man page.
idlexp _exp_ Specify a power of 2 for the maximum size of an index slot.The default is 16, yielding a maximum slot size of 2^16 or 65536. Once set, this option applies to every mdb database instance. The specified value must be in the range of 16‑31.
Still I'm slighly confused: If the default is 16 and you set it to (let's say) 18, by which power of two will the value be increased? 2^18 - 2^16 is not a power of 2, so you could increase the value three times by 2^16 (one to make 2^17, and another two to make 2^18). But I still guess the value is simply set to 2^18, whatever the increase from the default might be. Can you confirm?
