Use timed decays to shrink TLAB sizes. This conserves memory 
for the threads that allocate in bursts of different sizes, 
for example the small/rare allocations coming after the initial 
large burst.

Use elastic policy to manage TLAB sizes. This conserves memory 
for non-actively allocating threads, even when they request 
large TLABs for themselves. Active threads would experience 
smaller TLABs until policy catches up.

Max TLAB size to use with Epsilon GC. Larger value improves 
performance at the expense of per-thread memory waste. This 
asks TLAB machinery to cap TLAB sizes at this value.

Min expansion step for heap. Larger value improves performance 
at the potential expense of memory waste.

improves performance at the expense of per-thread memory waste. 
Lower value improves memory footprint, but penalizes actively 
allocating threads.

the expense of lower resolution in heap counters.
