Review Comment:
   Doing a full debug.WriteHeapDump would definitely be expensive, but a pprof 
HeapProfile is an allocation sample, and is much cheaper. Technically we do 
take memory stats when the runner sends a WorkerStatus call, and samples can be 
taken very regularly without undue performance impact.
   
   But I agree we probably want to centralize some kind of "Thrashing" 
detection so other parts of the stack could reduce their memory usage 
dynamically if desired, without everything doing it's own detection.  This 
mostly means designing with this usage in mind more than getting everything 
unified from the start.
