207 // Rationale:
208 // The idea is that there is an average allocation rate and there are occasional abnormal bursts (or spikes) of
209 // allocations that exceed the average allocation rate. What do these spikes look like?
210 //
211 // 1. At certain phase changes, we may discard large amounts of data and replace it with large numbers of newly
212 // allocated objects. This "spike" looks more like a phase change. We were in steady state at M bytes/sec
213 // allocation rate and now we're in a "reinitialization phase" that looks like N bytes/sec. We need the "spike"
214 // accommodation to give us enough runway to recalibrate our "average allocation rate".
215 //
216 // 2. The typical workload changes. "Suddenly", our typical workload of N TPS increases to N+delta TPS. This means
217 // our average allocation rate needs to be adjusted. Once again, we need the "spike" accomodation to give us
218 // enough runway to recalibrate our "average allocation rate".
219 //
220 // 3. Though there is an "average" allocation rate, a given workload's demand for allocation may be very bursty. We
221 // allocate a bunch of LABs during the 5 ms that follow completion of a GC, then we perform no more allocations for
222 // the next 150 ms. It seems we want the "spike" to represent the maximum divergence from average within the
223 // period of time between consecutive evaluation of the should_start_gc() service. Here's the thinking:
224 //
225 // a) Between now and the next time I ask whether should_start_gc(), we might experience a spike representing
226 // the anticipated burst of allocations. If that would put us over budget, then we should start GC immediately.
227 // b) Between now and the anticipated depletion of allocation pool, there may be two or more bursts of allocations.
228 // If there are more than one of these bursts, we can "approximate" that these will be separated by spans of
229 // time with very little or no allocations so the "average" allocation rate should be a suitable approximation
230 // of how this will behave.
231 //
232 // For cases 1 and 2, we need to "quickly" recalibrate the average allocation rate whenever we detect a change
233 // in operation mode. We want some way to decide that the average rate has changed, while keeping average
234 // allocation rate computation independent.
