After re-reading this again I agree with what you're writing. If you make the
change to use:
if (MinObjAlignment >= CollectedHeap::min_fill_size()) {
return;
}
do you even have to check for UCOH in this function?
I also wonder if you could tweak the comment now that this is not true when
UCOH is on:
// The size of the filler (min-obj-size) is 2 heap words with the default
// MinObjAlignment, since both markword and klass take 1 heap word.
