Region comparator, used by the two, calls region_impl::min_occupancy(),
which calls log_histogram::largest(). The latter is O(N) in terms of
the number of segments, and is supposed to be used only in tests.
We should call one_of_largest() instead, which is O(1).
This caused compact_on_idle() to take more CPU as the number of
segments grew (even when there was nothing to compact). Eviction
would see the same kind of slow down as well.
