+// The G1YoungRemSetSamplingThread is used to re-assess the validity of
+// the prediction for the remembered set lengths of the young generation.
+//
+// At the end of the GC G1 determines the length of the young gen based on
+// how much time the next GC can take, and when the next GC may occur
+// according to the MMU.
+//
+// The assumption is that a significant part of the GC is spent on scanning
+// the remembered sets (and many other components), so this thread constantly
+// reevaluates the prediction for the remembered set scanning costs, and potentially
+// G1CollectorPolicy resizes the young gen. This may do a premature GC or even
+// increase the young gen size to keep pause time length goal.
