No, the patch adds an *extra* comparison per major GC.  I was just
really thinking out loud, because I was a little worried that the
resizing logic for adding the stack size might be broken when
*shrinking* the heap.  But like I said, I think it works due to the
fact that shrinking only happens after performing a minor GC.

Cheers,
