We currently employ a edge-triggered block group reclaim strategy which marks block groups for reclaim as they free down past a threshold. With a dynamic threshold, this is worse than doing it in a level-triggered fashion periodically. That is because the reclaim itself happens periodically, so the threshold at that point in time is what really matters, not the threshold at freeing time. If we mark the reclaim in a big pass, then sort by usage and do reclaim, we also benefit from a negative feedback loop preventing unnecessary reclaims as we crunch through the "best" candidates. Since this is quite a different model, it requires some additional support. The edge triggered reclaim has a good heuristic for not reclaiming fresh block groups, so we need to replace that with a typical GC sweep mark which skips block groups that have seen an allocation since the last sweep.
