Request for code review - 8130265: gctests/LargeObjects/large001 fails with OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

[Jesper Wilhelmsson]

Hi,

+  minimum_desired_capacity += aligned_bytes_to_allocate;
+  maximum_desired_capacity += aligned_bytes_to_allocate;

Is it desired to always increase the desired capacity rather than doing it only 
if it is too small? E.g.:

minimum_desired_capacity = MAX2(minimum_desired_capacity, 
aligned_bytes_to_allocate);
maximum_desired_capacity = MAX2(maximum_desired_capacity, 
aligned_bytes_to_allocate);

Thanks,
/Jesper
