Abstract: Let $(K_n{)}_{n=1}^{infty}$ be the optimal constants satisfying the multilinear (real or complex) Bohnenblust--Hille inequality. The exact values of the constants $K_n$ are still waiting to be discovered since eighty years ago; recently, it was proved that $(K_n{)}_{n=1}^{infty}$ has a subexponential growth. In this note we go a step further and address the following question: Is it true that [ lim_{n ightarrowinfty}(K_{n}-K_{n-1}) =0? ] Our main result is a Dichotomy Theorem for the constants satisfying the Bohnenblust--Hille inequality; in particular we show that the answer to the above problem is essentially positive in a sense that will be clear along the note. Another consequence of the dichotomy proved in this note is that $(K_n{)}_{n=1}^{infty}$ has a kind of subpolynomial growth: if $p(n)$ is any non-constant polynomial, then $K_n$ extit{is} extit{not} asymptotically equal to $p(n).$ Moreover, if [ q>log_{2}(frac{e^{1-1/2gamma}}{sqrt{2}}) approx0.526, ] then [ K_{n} sim n^{q}. ]
