    Better describe the meaning of a zombie AllocationSite · 5895436b
    Mike Stanton authored
    AllocationSites are strongly rooted in various places.
    AllocationMementos, small heap objects immediately behind the
    objects which AllocationSites tracks, are purposely left
    unrooted. They do however, point to AllocationSites.
    
    This leads to a situation where an AllocationSite may no longer
    be seen to have strong roots at gc time, and yet new space is
    still repleat with AllocationMementos which point to it.
    The GC recognizes this, and marks the AllocationSite as a
    "zombie," that is, an object which should be kept alive for
    one more GC cycle because of the existence of those mementos
    which point to it.
