        As part of 6539517, some of the code relating to perm gen allocation
        was reorganized and partially consolidated. However, an inadvertent
        side-effect of that reorg was that CMS' perm gen allocation policy
        which attempts to avoid full gc's hwen allocating in the perm gen
        was lost. That functionality would need to be restored for the case
        of low-pause collectors such as CMS and G1.

        Meanwhile, a workaround is available, see workaround section.
