text: For example, in a memory network containing ~5 million synapses, under conditions that optimize storage capacity (i.e. with dendrites containing ~256 synapses, and patterns of 3% density), we found that each time a pattern is learned, only 150 of the 5 million synapses learn (0.003%), less than half of which are overtly strengthened (i.e. some are only rejuvenated), and those few altered synapses are confined to just 10 of the 20,000 dendrites contained within the network.
