Fine with me - since we are there, maybe you are interested in
revisiting the names for the other CollectorCounters too?

I found the following:

Parallel GC:

"PSScavenge"
"PSParallelCompact"
"PSMarkSweep"

CMS:

"CMS"
"MSC"

Serial:

"PCopy" (I have no idea what this is supposed to be; this is serial
young gc)

We can skip them too if we can't find better names.

Thanks,
  Thomas
