but at some point it would be resized, right?  what happens if there's
a big table, i clear() it, and then add a single key/value.  would it
stay big forever?  until the next garbage collection? or immediately,
as the set function detects it's way oversized?

if the later, then how am i supposed to 'recycle' big structures?
