Hello.
Currently triggering of GC in GMS GC is too naive and should be improved.

Obvious things to implement:
1. Triggering of nursery collection should be dynamically adjusted based on pause time and GC pressure.
2. Triggering of older generations can be based on amount of allocated memory in collection.
