Should the multipart upload threshold be set higher than 8 MB #321

Hi guys!

I'm referencing to this page (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/mpuoverview.html) which states that Amazon is recommending to use multipart upload for files larger than 100MB.

However, the configuration in s3transfer is to do it from 8MB.

So my question is - why the 8MB threshold? Couldn't find any data on that. And if the number is arbitrary, maybe it needs to be changed to 100MB?
