When LRU cost only shows up on one list, we abruptly stop scanning that
list altogether. That's an extreme reaction: by the time the other list
starts thrashing and the pendulum swings back, we may have no recent age
information on the first list anymore, and we could have significant
latencies until the scanner has caught up.
Soften this change in the feedback system by ensuring that no list
receives less than a third of overall pressure, and only distribute the
other 66% according to LRU cost. This ensures that we maintain a minimum
rate of aging on the entire workingset while it's being pressured, while
still allowing a generous rate of convergence when the relative sizes of
the lists need to adjust.
