    11  \* This specification models the version-based flushing/ticking of series
    12  \* buffer buckets that is required for the warm/cold write feature. The
    13  \* specification models the system by running three different processes:
    14  \*
    15  \*    1. One process responsible for beginning and ending the flush process.
    16  \*       This process will begin a flush by looping through all the BucketsInMemory
    17  \*       and setting their LastSuccessfulFlushVersion to whatever the
    18  \*       CurrentLastSuccessfulFlushVersion is. It also models both flush
    19  \*       successes and flush failures.
    20  \*          Flush Success: Copy all the BucketsInMemory whose
    21  |*                         LastSuccessfulFlushVersion is smaller than
    22  \*                         or equal to the CurrentLastSuccessfulFlushVersion (I.E those
    23  \*                         we could have conceivably known about at flush start time) into
    24  \*                         the set of PersistedBuckets, and then increment the
    25  \*                         CurrentLastSuccessfulFlushVersion.
    26  \*
    27  \*          Flush Failure: Nothing happens and the CurrentLastSuccessfulFlushVersion stays the same.
    28  \*
    29  \*
    30  \*    2. One process responsible for creating new buckets by issuing "writes". It does
    31  \*       this by storing them in the BucketsInMemory set, as well as in the
    32  \*       WrittenBuckets set (so we can keep track of them independently of the eviction
    33  \*       from memory process).
    34  \*
    35  \*
    36  \*    3. One process responsible for the "Ticking" process that will periodically evict
    37  \*       every bucket from the BucketsInMemory set whose LastSuccessfulFlushVersion is >=
    38  \*       CurrentLastSuccessfulFlushVersion and also > 0 (because version zero is the bucket
    39  \*       for unflushed writes).
    40  \*
    41  \*
    42  \* The specification verifies the system by allowing all of these processes to run
    43  \* concurrently (as they do in M3DB) and asserting that the invariant that we can
    44  \* always read every bucket that has been written from the combination of the
    45  \* BucketsInMemory and PersistedBuckets holds true at every step (meaning we never
    46  \* lose data due to the Tick evicting data that hasn't been flushed yet.)

    53      \*    2. LastSuccessfulFlushVersion (int)
    54      \*
    55      \* BucketsInMemory stores all the buckets that are currently in the M3DB
    56      \* process's memory, WrittenBuckets stores all the buckets that the client
