Considering the prominence of DoS attacks and similar, I think it
makes a lot of sense to be able to free the memory again, and if
the hysteresis you have built in means that there is no measurable
performance impact I think you will face no objections.
Is it possible to auto-tune min_on_avail somehow ?
What if instead you made it free only when more than 50% of the
memory allocated from the map was unused ?
Could that freeing be done by a timeout routine which runs every
N seconds ?
