I can't quite get my head around how it will perform in instances where you miss 1 hitset but all others are a hit. Like this: H H H M H H H H H H H H And recency is set to 8 for example. It maybe that it doesn't have much effect on the overall performance. It might be that there is a strong separation of really hot blocks and hot blocks, but this could turn out to be a good thing. Would it be useful for me to run all 3 versions (Old, this and mine) through the same performance test I did before? Also I saw pull request 6623, is it still relevant to get the list order right? Thanks for your support on this.
