Memory storage growth

[James W. W. <ja...@wr...>]

While trying to write a large object to a memory storage object, I 
noticed that more than half the time was spent in 
e3storage_memory_grow.  Memory storage objects grow linearly, but it 
is well known that you get better performance if you grow buffers 
exponentially (e.g., double the size each time you need to grow.) 
Shall I make exponential growth an option, or just change the 
standard behavior?  I can't think of any reason that existing 
software would be hurt by the change.
