Can I get a notification before fullGC?

BTW, a typical use case I was thinking is project transition. The
working sets can be pretty different across projects... (So, flushing
the cache upon project transition may be a good idea.)
In regards to the one more mapping for different colors, I'd
delegate the measurement by somebody else, at least for the "October
release".
And, memoryHog is a bit too tight. The purpose is rather be a
better citizen to a relatively limited system, than avoiding critical
situations.
A special array to nil-out upon fullGC would be good. (If we have a
flexible and dynamically modifiable VM, this approach would make more
sense.)
