There is no Lisp defcustom for it (why not - why put this in C code?), so I don't know what the type is except by experimenting with the edit field and getting an error saying that it must be an integer. So if it MUST be an integer, why does the doc string say this: "If an integer > 0,..." Presumably that is distinguish what happens if the value is an integer less than or equal to zero. Well, what does happen in that case? Not clear at all, for users.
