I don't think that logic is sound.

Rather,

       if (smoothed_alloc <= (float) recent_alloc) {
               smoothed_alloc = recent_alloc;
       } else {
               if (smoothed_alloc < 0.000001)
                   smoothed_alloc = 0;
               smoothed_alloc += ((float) recent_alloc - smoothed_alloc) /
                       smoothing_samples;
       }
