Those LIRS traces, along with many others, are available at this page [1]. I did a cursory review using their traces with Caffeine's and the author's simulators to avoid bias or a mistaken implementation. In their target workloads Caffeine was on par or better [2]. I have not seen anything novel in this or their previous works and find their claims to be easily disproven, so I have not implement this policy in Caffeine’s simulator yet.
