Hi all,

   can I have reviews for this change that regularizes behavior of the 
young gen sizer?

In particular, if NewRatio is exclusively used for sizing the young gen 
sizer may return 0 for minimum size if NewRatio is huge. This is 
different to all other sizing modes.

There is no particular impact from what I understand from tests as the 
heuristics will force a larger than zero sized eden later if possible.
