8010722: assert: failed: heap size is too big for compressed oops Summary: Use conservative assumptions of required alignment for the various garbage collector components into account when determining the maximum heap size that supports compressed oops. Using this conservative value avoids several circular dependencies in the calculation. Reviewed-by: stefank, dholmes
