Contrary to what you might think worst pause time for V8 3.6.x and V8
3.7 - 3.15 should be roughly the same. V8 3.7 will also do 7 GCs in a
row as a last resort.

However in 3.6 if you hit a full collection it will always pause your
app for much longer then a incremental collector of 3.7 and later
would (given that everything is tweaked correctly).
