This ratio can accept genuine unexpected-node allocations when unrelated
activity inflates an expected node. With 4 KiB pages, 500000/100000 passes;
with 64 KiB pages, even 20000/60000 passes because 10000/32768 is below one.
Retain an absolute cap for max_lower or isolate the test file's cache pages.

Verdict - Needs revision
