Q85

A program takes as input a balanced binary search tree with $n$ leaf nodes and computes the value of a function $g(x)$ for each node $x$. If the cost of computing $g(x)$ is:

$$\Large \min \left ( \substack{\text{number of leaf-nodes}\\\text{in left-subtree of $x$}}\;,\; \substack{\text{number of leaf-nodes}\\\text{in right-subtree of $x$}}\right )$$

Then the worst-case time complexity of the program is?
