I'd suggest updating also the header of the test for clarity and then
exempt the Child 2 ('E') conditionally from comparisons, something like:

   * (for origin of the numbers, see model in memcg_protection.m.)

Sorry for the late reply. I think it is a good idea to update the header 
as well. This function is actually used by both test_memcg_low and 
test_memcg.min. So I will use low/min instead.
