> ObjectCount(AfterGC) event does a full single-threaded heap scan at a safepoint. After https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8215624, it is trivial to use the parallel version of the heap scan, reducing the time spent at the safepoint, and thus reducing the overhead of this event.

> The performance improvement is obvious, but just for confirmation, on my 16-core host, at around 1GB occupancy:

>
> Before: 770ms ( [3.059s][debug][gc,phases ] GC(13) Report Object Count 770.317ms )
> After: 92ms ( [2.335s][debug][gc,phases ] GC(13) Report Object Count 91.742ms )

> Question 1: Should this be the default behaviour for populate_table (use the number active workers as the parallelism, if nothing else specified)?
>
> Question 2: Is active_workers the correct value to use here? Or is max_workers more appropriate?
