this adds 256k to VMH. In fact we are going to try and move some of VMH allocations to vregions, for which we might also end up shrinking VMH. If this is for optimisation to avoid using larger blocks, can we keep the total size the same and rebalance buffers? Also I don't understand how saving some of 64k buffers of which there are currently 3, requires adding 8 32k buffers?

I don't want to rebalance globally here (requires testing all scenarios), we can shrink later if some allocations are moved. And even better, get rid of these blocks in the future. In the current configuration there are not enough 64k blocks which are used inefficiently, and in fact this is already a limited increase from PR 10499 which was too big. I could limit it more to 4x 32 probably.

This config defines size of virtual heap region shared between all cores
