:relfileprefix: ../../../
:mrdocs:

Return the maximum load factor allowed for this table. Note that if an insert operation would cause the load factor to exceed the `max_load_factor`, that same insert operation will increase the capacity and rehash the entries of the container (see `insert` and `rehash`). Note that the value returned by `max_load_factor` is implementation dependent and cannot be changed by the user.
