I do think you should completely ignore the size of the swap space. IMHO you should forbid further allocations when your current buffer storage cannot be reclaimed. So you need some form of feedback mechanism that would tell you: "Your buffers have grown too much".
Yeah well, that is exactly what we are trying to do here.
If you cannot do that then simply assume that you cannot swap at all rather than rely on having some portion of it for yourself. There are many other users of memory outside of your subsystem. Any scaling based on the 50% of resource belonging to me is simply broken.
Our intention is not reserve 50% of resources to TTM, but rather allow TTM to abort when more than 50% of all resources are used up.
Rogers initial implementation didn't looked like that, but that is just a minor mistake we can fix.
