/**
@file
Implements cache replacement policies. Eventually, this could be
extended to support application specific caching schemes.
@todo Stasis used to use LRU-2S. LRU-2S is described in Markatos
"On Caching Searching Engine Results". (This needs to be
re-implemented properly.)
For now, Stasis uses plain-old LRU. DB-MIN would be an interesting
extension.
