// This is adapted from a benchmark written by John Ellis and Pete Kovac
// of Post Communications.
// It was modified by Hans Boehm of Silicon Graphics.
//
//      This is no substitute for real applications.  No actual application
//      is likely to behave in exactly this way.  However, this benchmark was
//      designed to be more representative of real applications than other
//      Java GC benchmarks of which we are aware.
//      It attempts to model those properties of allocation requests that
//      are important to current GC techniques.
//      It is designed to be used either to obtain a single overall performance
//      number, or to give a more detailed estimate of how collector
//      performance varies with object lifetimes.  It prints the time
//      required to allocate and collect balanced binary trees of various
//      sizes.  Smaller trees result in shorter object lifetimes.  Each cycle
//      allocates roughly the same amount of memory.
//      Two data structures are kept around during the entire process, so
//      that the measured performance is representative of applications
//      that maintain some live in-memory data.  One of these is a tree
//      containing many pointers.  The other is a large array containing
//      double precision floating point numbers.  Both should be of comparable
//      size.
//
//      The results are only really meaningful together with a specification
//      of how much memory was used.  It is possible to trade memory for
//      better time performance.  This benchmark should be run in a 32 MB
//      heap, though we don't currently know how to enforce that uniformly.
//
//      Unlike the original Ellis and Kovac benchmark, we do not attempt
//      measure pause times.  This facility should eventually be added back
//      in.  There are several reasons for omitting it for now.  The original
//      implementation depended on assumptions about the thread scheduler
//      that don't hold uniformly.  The results really measure both the
//      scheduler and GC.  Pause time measurements tend to not fit well with
//      current benchmark suites.  As far as we know, none of the current
//      commercial Java implementations seriously attempt to minimize GC pause
//      times.
