Ok. Thanks,

> Shenandoah heap regions checks verify that initial heap size covers at least 10 regions. This means
> the lowest uncommitted size is at least 10*RegionSize, which is a lot for large heaps. This seems to
> be the reminiscent of old resizing scheme, where Shenandoah could have run with "initial heap" for a
> long time, before GC code decided to resize. There is little sense it in now: Shenandoah would
> commit regions up to max_capacity if needed, including during the initial barrage of allocations. We
> should instead check that "max" heap size covers at least 10 regions.
