To improve this a little, we can record the number evacuation failure object per region, and not record these objects when the number hit some limit. But I'm not sure if it's necessary to do so, as I think such condition is so extreme to be met in real environment, although I'm not quite sure.

I tried --disable-precompiled-headers before, sometimes it helps to locate this kind of issue, but not for this time.
I will try your modification later.
Thansk a lot
