I am not so sure. Here on my machine it's using 16 GC workers, which
means it would grab 16 regions, 1 region each, (possibly 32MB each
region when running large heaps), for GCLAB right away? Would it even
nearly fill up all those regions? Maybe this should be put in a
heuristic that counts in cset size and num-gc-threads?
