      The SA PointerFinder code currently has no specific support for G1. It does for SerialGC. If a pointer is found to be in the SerialGC heap, PointerFinder will include information about which generation the pointer is in. For G1 it could include information about which region the address is in, but currently no such logic is in place, and all the user is told is that the pointer is in the heap. It should be pretty easy to add G1 support to PointerFinder since all the underlying support is already in place.
