A circular buffer can contain a number of nodes and get bigger when it runs out of space by making a larger buffer and copying the old data or clustering as I described above. It doesn't have a "fixed capacity". My circular queue works without moving any elements on insertion (with cluster method) or just moving the nodes each time the buffer size is exceeded. It seems this "double ended queue" isn't as useful because it has to copy nodes, find a middle etc. Even in the "cluster" version of my circular queue, you can quickly calculate the actual location of any node directly using it's "virtual" index number, even though the head and tail can "float" anywhere along each cluster array of structs.
