    Description

      As part of the mustang performance work we ran a bunch of apps with varying heap numbers to gauge the impact on startup. After much analysis and debate we arrived at a size of 1mb for the young generation and 4mb for the tenure generation.
      For reference here's the heap size (on linux) of the set of apps we used after startup:

        abeille 576 2520
        columba 960 11948
        jdiskreport 576 6152
        jedit 576 2268
        limewire 576 4144
        notepad 576 1408
        photomesa 576 3372
        reportmill 576 6248
                     ----- ------
        Average 624 4757

      This resulted in an average startup gain of 5%.
