Incrementally calculate the occupied cards in a heap region remembered set

XMLWordPrintable

    • gc
    • b26

      Currently a remembered set's occupancy is calculated from its components. This is problematic for a few reasons:

      - slow on remembered sets with lots of components, which causes lots of additional code to avoid recalculation or mitigations
      - may cause the total count going down temporarily when calculating during coarsening; attempting to account for this adds additional code

      Particularly for updating predictions at mutator time such a temporary wrong value may cause unexpected prediction results.
