I think there shouldn't be any need for this anymore. After this change
we shouldn't invalidate the map until there's no space on it - thereby
addressing the cost overhead, and greatly reducing the likelihood that
the local FSM can lead to increased bloat.

I'm not sure I like this. My inclination would be that we should be able
to check the local fsm repeatedly even if there's no space in the
in-memory representation - otherwise the use of the local FSM increases
bloat.
