+Change dict growth function from ``round_up_to_power_2(used*2+hashtable_size/2)`` to
+``round_up_to_power_2(used*3)``. Previously, dict is shrinked only when ``used == 0``.
+Now dict has more chance to be shrinked.

/* GROWTH_RATE. Growth rate upon hitting maximum load.
- * Currently set to used*2 + capacity/2.
+ * Currently set to used*3.
* This means that dicts double in size when growing without deletions,
* but have more head room when the number of deletions is on a par with the
- * number of insertions.
- * Raising this to used*4 doubles memory consumption depending on the size of
- * the dictionary, but results in half the number of resizes, less effort to
- * resize.
+ * number of insertions. See also bpo-17563 and bpo-33205.
+ *
* GROWTH_RATE was set to used*4 up to version 3.2.
* GROWTH_RATE was set to used*2 in version 3.3.0
+ * GROWTH_RATE was set to used*2 + capacity/2 in 3.4.0-3.6.0.
