Item was removed: - Object subclass: #ObjectHistory - instanceVariableNames: 'marks markProcess' - classVariableNames: 'Current' - poolDictionaries: '' - category: 'System-Support'! - - !ObjectHistory commentStamp: 'bf 11/16/2012 12:19' prior: 0! - ObjectHistory holds ObjectHistoryMark objects which are placed in the object memory at regular intervals by its markProcess in the background. Adjacent marks (with no remaining objects inbetween) are coalesced so over time the collection does not grow unnecessarily large. - - Using these markers it is possible to determine the age of objects in memory from the time the ObjectHistory was initialized. Try e.g.: - self oopTimestamp. - self oopAge. - ObjectHistory current oopClassesByDate. - - Instance Variables - marks: SortedCollection of ObjectHistoryMark objects - markProcess: a Process running our markLoop - !

Even if the number was large, this is running at system background priority so should not interfere with any user process, not even user background processes. The symptom should only be that the system is less idle. - - If we ever get to a point where the number of marks is an issue then the compacting here could be made partial: since old marks rarely get coalesced it would make sense to only check the newer ones often, and the old ones perhaps only at the system startup."!

It holds a timestamp. - - While the timestamp could be used directly as mark by ObjectHistory, it's conceivable that its format might change in the future, and we do not want the mark's relative position in memory to change (which would be the case if it was migrated to a new format). So we use a distinct object instead (and we protect it against accidental become-ing by overriding those methods).!
