As above expression, they are reciprocal number of ratio.
-256 means 1/256. # of protection pages becomes about "0.39%" of total present
+256 means 1/256. # of protection pages becomes about "0.39%" of total managed
pages of higher zones on the node.
If you would like to protect more pages, smaller values are effective.
