I was under that expression (log base 2 -> lb) never seen
,,lg'' before.

And (no that I generally trust wikipedia) you see for example
that:

'' Balance Theorem: The cost of performing the sequence S is O(m(logn + 1) + nlogn).
In other words, splay trees perform as well as static balanced
binary search trees on sequences of at least n accesses. ''
