 * is the point of global synchronization, and synchronization only
 * occurs at the granularity of acquiring (and releasing) chunks of
 * memory from the VMResource.  Subclasses may require finer grained
 * synchronization during a marking phase, for example.<p>
 *
 * This is a first cut implementation, with plenty of room for
