// Below we compute a goal from memoryLimit. There are a few things to be aware of.
// Firstly, the memoryLimit does not easily compare to the heap goal: the former
// is total mapped memory by the runtime that hasn't been released, while the latter is
// only heap object memory. Intuitively, the way we convert from one to the other is to
// subtract everything from memoryLimit that both contributes to the memory limit (so,
// ignore scavenged memory) and doesn't contain heap objects. This isn't quite what
// lines up with reality, but it's a good starting point.
//
// In practice this computation looks like the following:
//
// memoryLimit - ((mappedReady - heapFree - heapAlloc) + max(mappedReady - memoryLimit, 0)) - memoryLimitHeapGoalHeadroom
// ^1 ^2 ^3
//
// Let's break this down.
//
// The first term (marker 1) is everything that contributes to the memory limit and isn't
// or couldn't become heap objects. It represents, broadly speaking, non-heap overheads.
// One oddity you may have noticed is that we also subtract out heapFree, i.e. unscavenged
// memory that may contain heap objects in the future.
//
// Let's take a step back. In an ideal world, this term would look something like just
// the heap goal. That is, we "reserve" enough space for the heap to grow to the heap
// goal, and subtract out everything else. This is of course impossible; the definition
// is circular! However, this impossible definition contains a key insight: the amount
// we're *going* to use matters just as much as whatever we're currently using.
//
// Consider if the heap shrinks to 1/10th its size, leaving behind lots of free and
// unscavenged memory. mappedReady - heapAlloc will be quite large, because of that free
// and unscavenged memory, pushing the goal down significantly.
//
// heapFree is also safe to exclude from the memory limit because in the steady-state, it's
// just a pool of memory for future heap allocations, and making new allocations from heapFree
// memory doesn't increase overall memory use. In transient states, the scavenger and the
// allocator actively manage the pool of heapFree memory to maintain the memory limit.
//
// The second term (marker 2) is the amount of memory we've exceeded the limit by, and is
// intended to help recover from such a situation. By pushing the heap goal down, we also
// push the trigger down, triggering and finishing a GC sooner in order to make room for
// other memory sources. Note that since we're effectively reducing the heap goal by X bytes,
// we're actually giving more than X bytes of headroom back, because the heap goal is in
// terms of heap objects, but it takes more than X bytes (e.g. due to fragmentation) to store
// X bytes worth of objects.
//
// The third term (marker 3) subtracts an additional memoryLimitHeapGoalHeadroom bytes from the
// heap goal. As the name implies, this is to provide additional headroom in the face of pacing
// inaccuracies. This is a fixed number of bytes because these inaccuracies disproportionately
// affect small heaps: as heaps get smaller, the pacer's inputs get fuzzier. Shorter GC cycles
// and less GC work means noisy external factors like the OS scheduler have a greater impact.
