> Hi all,
> 
>   can I have reviews for this small change improving the check for empty Open Archive regions using information that has recently been added to the full gc in [JDK-8263495](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8263495) instead of scanning the region?
> 
> Testing: tier1-3, manual check that the freeing still works using some hack to create a dummy Open Archive region which contents are completely unreferenced and then running a "Hello World" app doing a system.gc. The patch for the VM to create that archive is [here](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/commit/47d740d244b09b104df635c07ee49f89f480ebc6).
