overallocate all records by 25%
This greatly reduces the fragmentation of databases where records tend to grow slowly by a small amount each time. The case where this is most seen is the ldb index records. Adding this overallocation reduced the size of the resulting database by more than 20x when running a test that adds 10k users.
