+ * lib/minmax.c: windowed min/max tracker
+ *
+ * Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum (or maximum)
+ * value of a data stream over some fixed time interval.  (E.g.,
+ * the minimum RTT over the past five minutes.) It uses constant
+ * space and constant time per update yet almost always delivers
+ * the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all the
+ * data in the window.
+ *
+ * The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
+ * values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
+ * the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
+ * values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
+ * the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
+ * over the window.
+ *
+ * Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
+ * it has no value - the new min is <= everything else in the window
+ * by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh on
+ * every new min and overwrites 2nd & 3rd choices. The same property
+ * holds for 2nd & 3rd best.
