+% This script simulates reclaim protection behavior on a single level of memcg
+% hierarchy to illustrate how overcommitted protection spreads among siblings
+% (as it depends also on their current consumption).
+%
+% Simulation assumes siblings consumed the initial amount of memory (w/out
+% reclaim) and then the reclaim starts, all memory is reclaimable, i.e. treated
+% same. It simulates only non-low reclaim and assumes all memory.min = 0.
+%
+% Input configurations
+% --------------------
+% E number parent effective protection
+% n vector nominal protection of siblings set at the given level (memory.low)
+% c vector current consumption -,,- (memory.current)
+
+% example from testcase (values in GB)

+n = [75 25 0 500 ] / 1024;
+c = [50 50 50 0] / 1024;
