In these stats, there are three important concepts: size, footprint and efficiency. Both are explained below.

texture footprint is the total seen by the cache during a render. It's the size the cache should be made to hold everything needed in memory. This is a good metric of how much data a scene is using. Note that the cache does not have to be that large to be fully efficient in most cases.The cache efficiency is related to this: it is the ratio between the footprint and the amount of data actually loaded into the cache, counting data which is loaded more than 50% 10%

cache efficiency
actually loaded into the cache, counting data which is loaded more than once because it was flushed. For example, at 2 each texture tile is loaded on average twice, which is actually not that bad. At 10, we're loading each tile 10 times, which is not that good anymore.
