So, moral of the story: GC apps in 64-bit mode allocate themselves a

That is correct.
Address space consumption -- as indicated by VSIZE -- does not
necessarily indicate a problem.
Unlike a 32 bit address space, a 64 bit address space affords the
opportunity to carve up the address space for purposes beyond simple
memory consumption.
