Encountered problems:
1. map space becomes huge, due to fragmentation. The serializer constantly allocates huge junks and some maps seem to leak.
Proposed fix: do regular allocation in serializer (turn off the GC) and compact map space
2. tiny worker threads with too much memory overhead
Proposed fix: reduce page size
3. memory reducer not kicking in for the main thread resulting in high fragmentation
Proposed fix: tweak memory reducer heuristic to ensure compaction
