- * LFU (Least Frequently Used) implementation.
-
- * We have 24 total bits of space in each object in order to implement
- * an LFU (Least Frequently Used) eviction policy, since we re-use the
- * LRU field for this purpose.
- *
- * We split the 24 bits into two fields:
- *
- *            16 bits       8 bits
- *     +------------------+--------+
- *     + Last access time | LOG_C  |
- *     +------------------+--------+
- *
- * LOG_C is a logarithmic counter that provides an indication of the access
- * frequency. However this field must also be decremented otherwise what used
- * to be a frequently accessed key in the past, will remain ranked like that
- * forever, while we want the algorithm to adapt to access pattern changes.
- *
- * So the remaining 16 bits are used in order to store the "access time",
- * a reduced-precision Unix time (we take 16 bits of the time converted
- * in minutes since we don't care about wrapping around) where the LOG_C
- * counter decays every minute by default (depends on lfu-decay-time).
- *
- * New keys don't start at zero, in order to have the ability to collect
- * some accesses before being trashed away, so they start at LFU_INIT_VAL.
- * The logarithmic increment performed on LOG_C takes care of LFU_INIT_VAL
- * when incrementing the key, so that keys starting at LFU_INIT_VAL
- * (or having a smaller value) have a very high chance of being incremented
- * on access. (The chance depends on counter and lfu-log-factor.)
- *
- * During decrement, the value of the logarithmic counter is decremented by
- * one when lfu-decay-time minutes elapsed.
