Details

In Bug 608952, Lars requested the removal of the method GCPolicyManager::setLowerLimitCollectionThreshold because it is ill-defined. In particular, it has no effect until the next (incremental) collection cycle has started, and may have no effect on non-incremental collection, and it may not make sense to be changing the policy in this manner after creating a GC. But, the player is invoking this method from its end. So we cannot remove the method immediately. So I imagine this task is to first change to the player code so that it uses the new config option to set the threshold at the time the GC is constructed (see Bug 608952); after that's been done, then all the invocations of setLowerLimitCollectionThreshold should be gone and we will be able to remove it.
