Unused X86 optimization

Though the ideal max_splits for n < 1 million (or so) on x86 seems to be substantially larger, enabling a roughly 15% speedup for such tests, this optimization isn't general, and doesn't apply for n > 1 million. A too large max_splits can cause sort to take more than twice as long, so it should be set on the low end of the reasonable range, where it is right now.
