/*
 * The cache (zbx_vc_cache_t) is organized as a hashset of item records (zbx_vc_item_t).
 *
 * Each record holds item data (itemid, value_type), statistics (hits, last access time,...)
 * and the historical data (timestamp,value pairs in ascending order).
 *
 * The historical data are stored from largest request (+timeshift) range to the
 * current time. The data is automatically fetched from DB whenever a request
 * exceeds cached value range.
 *
 * In addition to active range value cache tracks item range for last 24 hours. Once
 * per day the active range is updated with daily range and the daily range is reset.
 *
 * If an item is already being cached the new values are automatically added to the cache
 * after being written into database.
 *
 * When cache runs out of memory to store new items it enters in low memory mode.
 * In low memory mode cache continues to function as before with few restrictions:
 *   1) items that weren't accessed during the last day are removed from cache.
 *   2) items with worst hits/values ratio might be removed from cache to free the space.
 *   3) no new items are added to the cache.
 *
 * The low memory mode can't be turned off - it will persist until server is rebooted.
 * In low memory mode a warning message is written into log every 5 minutes.
