Mutator refinement processing should take the oldest dirty card buffer

XMLWordPrintable

    • gc
    • b16

      Currently, when a mutator helps refining a dirty card buffer, it refines the current buffer it just filled.
      In many situations this is not a good idea, because often the mutator will keep accessing the same memory areas again, immediately generating new card entries.

      Change the algorithm to use the last (oldest) buffer.

      There is a preliminary patch attached, needs perf testing.
