vbo: disable the minmax cache when the hit rate is low
When applications stream their index buffers, the caches for those BOs become
useless and add overhead, so we want to disable them. The tricky part is
coming up with the right heuristic for *when* to disable them.
The first question is which hit rate to aim for. Since I'm not aware of any
interesting borderline applications that do something like "draw two or three
times for each upload", I just kept it simple.
The second question is how soon we should give up on the caching. Applications
might have a warm-up phase where they fill a buffer gradually but then keep
reusing it. For this reason, I count the number of indices that hit and miss
(instead of the number of calls that hit or miss), since comparing that to
the size of the buffer makes sense.
