 75   //      available space. In non-overloaded heap, max_cset would contain all plausible candidates
 76   //      over garbage threshold.
 77   //
 78   //   2. We should not get cset too low so that free threshold would not be met right
 79   //      after the cycle. Otherwise we get back-to-back cycles for no reason if heap is
 80   //      too fragmented. In non-overloaded non-fragmented heap min_garbage would be around zero.
 81   //
 82   // Therefore, we start by sorting the regions by garbage. Then we unconditionally add the best candidates
 83   // before we meet min_garbage. Then we add all candidates that fit with a garbage threshold before
 84   // we hit max_cset. When max_cset is hit, we terminate the cset selection. Note that in this scheme,

 79   //   1. We cannot get cset larger than available free space. Otherwise we guarantee OOME
 80   //      during evacuation, and thus guarantee full GC. In practice, we also want to let
 81   //      application to allocate something. This is why we limit CSet to some fraction of
 82   //      available space. In non-overloaded heap, max_cset would contain all plausible candidates
 83   //      over garbage threshold.
 84   //
 85   //   2. We should not get cset too low so that free threshold would not be met right
 86   //      after the cycle. Otherwise we get back-to-back cycles for no reason if heap is
 87   //      too fragmented. In non-overloaded non-fragmented heap min_garbage would be around zero.
 88   //
 89   // Therefore, we start by sorting the regions by garbage. Then we unconditionally add the best candidates
 90   // before we meet min_garbage. Then we add all candidates that fit with a garbage threshold before
 91   // we hit max_cset. When max_cset is hit, we terminate the cset selection. Note that in this scheme,

207 //  Rationale:
208 //    The idea is that there is an average allocation rate and there are occasional abnormal bursts (or spikes) of
209 //    allocations that exceed the average allocation rate.  What do these spikes look like?
210 //
211 //    1. At certain phase changes, we may discard large amounts of data and replace it with large numbers of newly
212 //       allocated objects.  This "spike" looks more like a phase change.  We were in steady state at M bytes/sec
213 //       allocation rate and now we're in a "reinitialization phase" that looks like N bytes/sec.  We need the "spike"
214 //       accommodation to give us enough runway to recalibrate our "average allocation rate".
215 //
216 //   2. The typical workload changes.  "Suddenly", our typical workload of N TPS increases to N+delta TPS.  This means
217 //       our average allocation rate needs to be adjusted.  Once again, we need the "spike" accomodation to give us
218 //       enough runway to recalibrate our "average allocation rate".
219 //
220 //    3. Though there is an "average" allocation rate, a given workload's demand for allocation may be very bursty.  We
221 //       allocate a bunch of LABs during the 5 ms that follow completion of a GC, then we perform no more allocations for
222 //       the next 150 ms.  It seems we want the "spike" to represent the maximum divergence from average within the
223 //       period of time between consecutive evaluation of the should_start_gc() service.  Here's the thinking:
224 //
225 //       a) Between now and the next time I ask whether should_start_gc(), we might experience a spike representing
226 //          the anticipated burst of allocations.  If that would put us over budget, then we should start GC immediately.
227 //       b) Between now and the anticipated depletion of allocation pool, there may be two or more bursts of allocations.
228 //          If there are more than one of these bursts, we can "approximate" that these will be separated by spans of
229 //          time with very little or no allocations so the "average" allocation rate should be a suitable approximation
230 //          of how this will behave.
231 //
232 //    For cases 1 and 2, we need to "quickly" recalibrate the average allocation rate whenever we detect a change
233 //    in operation mode.  We want some way to decide that the average rate has changed, while keeping average
234 //    allocation rate computation independent.
