// - Space               -- an abstract base class describing a heap area
//   - CompactibleSpace  -- a space supporting compaction
//     - CompactibleFreeListSpace -- (used for CMS generation)
//     - ContiguousSpace -- a compactible space in which all free space
//                          is contiguous
//       - EdenSpace     -- contiguous space used as nursery
//         - ConcEdenSpace -- contiguous space with a 'soft end safe' allocation
//       - OffsetTableContigSpace -- contiguous space with a block offset array
//                          that allows "fast" block_start calls
//         - TenuredSpace -- (used for TenuredGeneration)
