+<dd>
+The cache configuration options \c eviction_checkpoint_target, \c
+eviction_dirty_target, \c eviction_dirty_trigger, \c eviction_target and \c
+eviction_trigger have changed. The options can now take absolute size. It would
+be a percentage of the cache size if the value is within the range of 0 to 100
+or an absolute size when greater than 100. This API change is compatible with
+existing usage.
