// Given GC speed in bytes per ms, the allocation throughput in bytes per ms
// (mutator speed), this function returns the heap growing factor that will
// achieve the target_mutator_utilization_ if the GC speed and the mutator speed
// remain the same until the next GC.
//
// For a fixed time-frame T = TM + TG, the mutator utilization is the ratio
// TM / (TM + TG), where TM is the time spent in the mutator and TG is the
// time spent in the garbage collector.
//
// Let MU be target_mutator_utilization_, the desired mutator utilization for
// the time-frame from the end of the current GC to the end of the next GC.
// Based on the MU we can compute the heap growing factor F as
//
// F = R * (1 - MU) / (R * (1 - MU) - MU), where R = gc_speed / mutator_speed.
//
// This formula can be derived as follows.
//
// F = Limit / Live by definition, where the Limit is the allocation limit,
// and the Live is size of live objects.
// Let’s assume that we already know the Limit. Then:
//   TG = Limit / gc_speed
//   TM = (TM + TG) * MU, by definition of MU.
//   TM = TG * MU / (1 - MU)
//   TM = Limit *  MU / (gc_speed * (1 - MU))
// On the other hand, if the allocation throughput remains constant:
//   Limit = Live + TM * allocation_throughput = Live + TM * mutator_speed
// Solving it for TM, we get
//   TM = (Limit - Live) / mutator_speed
// Combining the two equation for TM:
//   (Limit - Live) / mutator_speed = Limit * MU / (gc_speed * (1 - MU))
//   (Limit - Live) = Limit * MU * mutator_speed / (gc_speed * (1 - MU))
// substitute R = gc_speed / mutator_speed
//   (Limit - Live) = Limit * MU  / (R * (1 - MU))
// substitute F = Limit / Live
//   F - 1 = F * MU  / (R * (1 - MU))
//   F - F * MU / (R * (1 - MU)) = 1
//   F * (1 - MU / (R * (1 - MU))) = 1
//   F * (R * (1 - MU) - MU) / (R * (1 - MU)) = 1
//   F = R * (1 - MU) / (R * (1 - MU) - MU)
