The garbage collector is triggered by resource scarcity or by programmatic
invocation in the application source code.

Is it possible to trigger the GC from the VM code? Any special
precautions/steps to do that?

In 'gcscan.cpp', it says that FastAllocateObject will throw
OutOfMemoryException. Is the exception thrown by the
THROWSCOMPLUSEXCEPTION() line? If yes, why that line is right at the
beginning of the function? Is it a  macro?
