 Simplified version passing object state loses extra 15Meg to 60Meg

+OOOHKAAY...
+
+Looks like a humdinger this time:
+
+The Boehm GC algorithm is pretty simple:
+
+    expansion_slop = 8 * WORDS_TO_BYTES(min_words_allocd());
+    if (5 * HBLKSIZE * MAXHINCR > expansion_slop) {
+        expansion_slop = 5 * HBLKSIZE * MAXHINCR;
+    }
+
+This mean its either going to grab 8X what I asked for or
+5 x 8196 x 2048 = 5MEG
+
+If I do this repeatedly (like I am with XSP.exe), then I lose
+5Meg every web request because of GC.  Not good for me.
+
+We may want to make a MONO_SAVVY version of alloc.c and ship
+it with the package once we figure out what this algorithm
+really should be....
+
+Any thoughts?
