 ipfrag_time - INTEGER
 	Time in seconds to keep an IP fragment in memory.	
 
+INET peer storage:
+
+inet_peer_threshold - INTEGER
+	The approximate size of the storage.  Starting from this threshold	
+	entries will be thrown aggressively.  This threshold also determines
+	entries' time-to-live and time intervals between garbage collection
+	passes.  More entries, less time-to-live, less GC interval.
+
+inet_peer_minttl - INTEGER
+	Minimum time-to-live of entries.  Should be enough to cover fragment
+	time-to-live on the reassembling side.  This minimum time-to-live  is
+	guaranteed if the pool size is less than inet_peer_threshold.
+	Measured in jiffies.
+
+inet_peer_maxttl - INTEGER
+	Maximum time-to-live of entries.  Unused entries will expire after
+	this period of time if there is no memory pressure on the pool (i.e.
+	when the number of entries in the pool is very small).
+	Measured in jiffies.
+
+inet_peer_gc_mintime - INTEGER
+	Minimum interval between garbage collection passes.  This interval is
+	in effect under high memory pressure on the pool.
+	Measured in jiffies.
+
+inet_peer_gc_maxtime - INTEGER
+	Minimum interval between garbage collection passes.  This interval is
+	in effect under low (or absent) memory pressure on the pool.
