capacity behavior does not align with its documentation

[zacknewman]

Either there is a bug in code, or the documentation needs to be changed for capacity. The documentation states (emphasis added):

Returns how many key-value pairs the map can store without reallocating.

The following code illustrates a reallocation occurs before inserting more than capacity key-value pairs.

use dashmap::DashMap;
fn main() {
    let map = DashMap::with_capacity(192);
    let cap = map.capacity();
    for i in 0..cap {
        map.insert(i, ());
    }
    assert_eq!(cap, map.len());
    assert_ne!(cap, map.capacity());
}

Unsurprisingly, the same problem exists for DashSet.

[zacknewman]

I can sporadically trigger a reallocation in as few as 25 inserts (i.e., after ≈ 13% of the originally reported capacity—which is 192 on my machine—is added).

Is it possible to calculate a lower bound like HashMap::capacity?

Returns the number of elements the map can hold without reallocating.

This number is a lower bound; the HashMap<K, V> might be able to hold more, but is guaranteed to be able to hold at least this many.
