Hmm, Could you clarify following ?
- Usage of memory at insertsion and usage of memory at reclaim is different.
So, this *sorted* order by RB-tree isn't the best order in general.
Why don't you sort this at memory-reclaim dynamically ?
- Considering above, the look of RB tree can be
+30M (an amount over soft limit is 30M)
/ \
-15M +60M
?
At least, pleease remove the node at uncharge() when the usage goes down.
Thanks,
