I agree that I am more interested in cache overflows. However, the docs
in 'protocol.txt' included with the tarball describes:
355 evictions 64u Number of items removed from cache because
356 they passed their expiration time
This seems incorrect, both by my reading of the code and your statement
above. Unfortunately, I can't quite describe exactly what evictions are
because I don't understand the conditions under which an item's refcount
can be nonzero (and therefore not bumped to make way for new items).
