max_memused is the memlimit.  The second run has a lower memlimit so it has to 
run the step collection more then the first run.  I included the second run 
to show how step collection at limit 62000 compares to always full gc with 
it's peak_memused of 60518.  The step collection methods can't get the 
peak_memused as low as the always full gc method.
