For several years now, we have been repeatedly saying in this forum
IGNORE HIT RATIOS.
Definitely, they do mean something. But it is not a measure of performance.

Is there any rationale you are applying here?

Rarely a database needs a log_buffer more than 1Mb (Optimal in many cases is 512k. But let us not generalize anything here).
Because, log buffer is flushed every 3 seconds or after every commit or when it gets full to some threshold.
So the question is ,
does the database generate/handle more than 1 Mb worth records every 3 seconds?
