I wouldn't expect it to change the size of the token table except by one
byte maybe since 32767 is one character longer than 9999

I would expect it to maybe change the amount of memory the table requires
when running.

Give both tables a similar name testz1 testz2.
Put a show @ in both tables to cause them to wait for user input.
Start up both tables in concurrent sessions.
In a 3rd session run:
ps -eopid,size,args |grep testz

1st column is the pid, 2nd column is the size in memory, rest of the line is
the command line
