Default I believe is 10. The higher the number, the more statistics are
kept, with a maximum of 1000.
The default is a little bit low for columns used in foreign keys, though
frequently it is okay.
When problems start, try setting them to 100 or 200. Higher is more
accurate, but takes longer to compute, *and* takes longer when planning
the optimal query method. It can be worth it, though.
