A phase typically allocates more than it releases, accruing new nodes and resource area. A phase can also release more than allocated when Arenas carried over from other phases go out of scope in this phase. Finally, it can have high temporary peaks that vanish before the phase ends.

Thanks for addressing my comments! The latest changeset looks good (modulo unnecessary changes in `ostream.hpp`) and passes all tier1-5 tests in Oracle's test pipeline.

src/hotspot/share/utilities/ostream.hpp line 1:

> 1: /*

Please revert the unnecessary changes in this file as well.
