It should not be time to time, it should be whenever the cache is older
than a 1s (use a timer thread if you are concerned) as it being checked
everytime something is put into the cache (and so before the lists grow).
If it is overallocating such that you are running out of memory and not
reusing buffers, the cache is barely functioning. Now that's the
information you want to present, where/when/why/how the cache is not
working. What is being put into the cache that is never reused?
