148 // heap expansion, those allocations can trigger lots of safepointing
149 // attempts (ineffective GC attempts) and require Heap_lock which
150 // slow down allocations tremendously.
151 //

165 // no race condition between the fast path and GC. After _needs_gc
166 // is set at a safepoint, every thread will go through the slow path
167 // after the safepoint. Since after a safepoint, each of the
168 // following two methods is either entered from the method entry and
169 // falls into the slow path, or is resumed from the safepoints in
