The default allocation sizes for @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.SEQUENCE) and @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.TABLE) is 50.

Unfortunately if I let Hibernate choose the best generator according to the database dialect (i.e. @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO) Hibernate uses an allocation size of 1, which ruins performance.

Is there a way to specify the default allocation size for AUTO? Or is this a bug?

Btw.: I'm using Hibernate 3.5.6-Final (core + entitymanager).

Thanks and best regards
