I assume it is called after init. The code I copied is from ibuf_data_sizes_update and cscope shows it is called from ibuf_data_init_for_space, ibuf_insert_low and ibuf_delete_rec.

The other interesting number is: ('merged records' - 'merges') * 2 That is an estimate for the IO (reads+writes) saved by the insert buffer. I copied that from the code, so it should hold.
