It was 1-2% on octane. We'll have to try out with --min-semi-space-size=4 and
compare

We are still doing runs to capture the current benefit of the page size change
given changes to the OOL implementation versus the option suggested.
Separately,
most of the changes in this patch are to make the tests use the page size define
as opposed to a hard coded assumption. Would it make sense to commit those
changes
and then submit a second review once we've captured the current benefit and
comparison to --min-semi-space-size=4 ? If so I can update this patch to move
the change to the page size for PPC.
