+ * gc.c: change additional allocation policy.
+
+ Introduce new environement variable
+ GC_HEAP_FREE_SLOTS_GOAL_RATIO (goal_ratio) to calculate the ratio
+ of additional memory.
+
+ Before this change, we add pages with the following formula
+ (when free_slots < total_pages * RUBY_GC_HEAP_FREE_SLOTS_MIN_RATIO):
+ next_pages = total_pages * RUBY_GC_HEAP_GROWTH_FACTOR
+
+ This addition can allocate too much.
+
+ With this change, we increase pages to satisfy the following formula:
+ next_free_slots = next_total_slots * goal_ratio
+ where
+ next_free_slots = free_slots + adding_slots
+ next_total_slots = total_slots + adding_slots.
+
+ If you want to prepare many free slots, increase this ratio.
+
+ If this variable is 0, then simply multiply
+ RUBY_GC_HEAP_GROWTH_FACTOR.
+
+ * gc.c (get_envparam_double): enable to accept 0.
