DESCRIPTION¶
Handle quotas in times of memory shortage.
This function is called during the final phase of a garbage collection if the reserved user area couldn’t be reallocated. This function (or a called demon) has now the opportunity to remove some (still active) objects from the system. If this does not free enough memory to reallocate the user reserve, slow_shut_down(M) will be called to start Armageddon.
Up to now, the wizlist lacks various information needed to detect the memory-hungriest users.
