Summary WebProcess can get stuck in GC during many low memory signals

Reported 2012-03-22 14:10:09 PDT
We have seen evidence of a computer getting stuck in GC during a low memory signal. The GC was paging in more memory to run and so it was unable to finish before the next low memory signal fired. We think with the new style of GC we will not get any value to forcing GC during a low memory signal so we should remove the call. <rdar://problem/11094830> WebProcess appears to get stuck in its GC handler
