Limit zone state size

Server NGINX

Hello.
I’ve been reading the limit zone documentation and it seems there’s some
ambiguity about the size of states.
There are some mentions in the docs about states being 32 or 64 bytes in
size (256/512 bits), but there’s also this sentence:

“can keep about 32 thousand 32-bit states, and about 16 thousand 64-byte
states”

So, limit zone states are kept in 32/64 bits or 32/64 bytes (256/512
bits)?

From previous sentences and numbers in the one in question it
should be clear enough that it’s 32 bytes, not bits. That was
just typo, fixed, thanks.
