Summary: change off-heap memory from compaction to coalesce Key: GEODE-1017 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-1017 Project: Geode Issue Type: Bug Components: offheap Reporter: Karen Smoler Miller Replace references to off-heap space compaction with *coalesce*, because we do not do any compaction. Our memory management does a coalesce when it needs to combine adjacent fragments. https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Memory_Management/Memory_Compacting defines compaction: ". . .the process of moving allocated objects together, and leaving empty space together." We do not move allocated chunks, so implying we do is misleading. At the very least, all outward facing statistics should be renamed. Better would be to rework any code that uses compaction where it actually refers to a coalesce. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
