No.
BufTable* functions are created to abstract Buffer Table from dynahash.
Pass of HASH_REUSE directly will break abstraction.

It is debatable.
Why not num_allocated? allocated_count? number_of_allocations?
Same points for nfree.
`nalloced` is recognizable and unambiguous. And there are a lot
of `*alloced` in the postgresql's source, so this one will not
be unusual.
I don't see the need to make it longer.
But if someone supports your point, I will not mind to changing
the name.

Doesn't really matter much, because calculation must be valid
even if all nfree==0.
I'd rather debate use of 'long' in dynahash at all: 'long' is
32bit on 64bit Windows. It is better to use 'Size' here.
But 'nelements' were 'long', so I didn't change things. I think
it is place for another patch.
(On the other hand, dynahash with 2**31 elements is at least
512GB RAM... we doubtfully trigger problem before OOM killer
came. Does Windows have an OOM killer?)

For each dynahash instance single allocation were reduced.
I think, 'memory allocation' is correct.
Plural will be
reduce memory allocations for non-partitioned dynahashes
ie both 'allocations' and 'dynahashes'.
Am I wrong?
