Decrease target objects per slab

Description

Decrease target objects per slab

By decreasing the number of target objects per slab we increase
the likelyhood that a slab can be freed. This reduces the level
of fragmentation in the slab which has been observed to be a
problem for certain workloads. The penalty for this is that we
also decrease the speed which need objects can be allocated.
