// This class implements the Briggs test for "allocability" of nodes in a
// PBQP graph representing a register allocation problem. Nodes which can be
// proven allocable (by a safe and relatively accurate test) are removed from
// the PBQP graph first. If no provably allocable node is present in the graph
// then the node with the minimal spill-cost to degree ratio is removed.

    /// highest degree is selected for the next reduction and pushed to the

    /// the lowest estimated spill cost is selected and push to the solver stack
    /// instead.
