1.0.45.7: set *backend-page-bytes* to 32KB

* Setting *backend-page-bytes* to 32KB.  I did test runs with
different *backend-page-bytes* values and 32KB clearly came out on top
performance-wise.  It also delays (not avoids) the problem of running
out of maximum mappings allowed by current kernel settings.
