Same as the comment below, perhaps it is a good idea to clarify in the
comment here that the original value wa *multiplied by* slice_per_pkt?
Otherwise this default of 1 is "invisible".

Alternatively we could have a `const slice_per_pkt = 1;` at the top, and
have the comment (the elaborate one from below) there?
