[PATCH] mempool: test performance with larger bursts

[Morten Brørup]

Bursts of up to 128 packets are not uncommon, so increase the maximum
tested get and put burst sizes from 32 to 128.

Some applications keep more than 512 objects, so increase the maximum
number of kept objects from 512 to 4096.
This exceeds the typical mempool cache size of 512 objects, so the test
also exercises the mempool driver.
