Finite historic-measure mass implies zero entropy

Let X{\mathbb X} be a compact manifold and let f:XXf:{\mathbb X}\to{\mathbb X} be a smooth (C1+C^{1+}) diffeomorphism. For each xXx\in{\mathbb X}, let ηx\eta_x denote the associated historic measure.

Zero-entropy conjecture. If

ηx(X)<\eta_x({\mathbb X})<\infty

for every xXx\in{\mathbb X}, then ff has zero topological entropy:

htop(f)=0.h_{\mathrm{top}}(f)=0.

The claim is disproved for homeomorphisms, by examples of Bégin, Crovisier and Le Roux, but remains conjectural in the stated smooth diffeomorphism setting.
