Working sets compared

NB: This graph is wrong - read more here

This shows the ‘lifetime curve’ of Xterm using a time based \theta for determining the working set (ie having a working set of variable size based on recency of access) and a fixed-sized working set.

The y-axis measures the average number of instructions executed between faults.
