The intent was to replenish the young allocation pool before beginning the "long" coalesce-and-fill effort which is part of the bootstrap gc.  This current design is mis-guided because the coalesce-and-fill effort will be preempted if a young gc is triggered while we are working on coalesce-and-fill.
