Hi Chris,
looks fine.
Do you suppose the test library should have a function that takes a set
of (Weak)Refs
and does whatever it takes to clear them (or timeout).
Perhaps even a public API in Runtime...

This is a small, test only, review request to fix an intermittently

It replaces a "bad" technique, heap exhaustion, with the "less bad"
technique of calling System.gc, potentially multiple times, to clear
weak references. With this change the test runs much quicker, and has
not failed in several thousands of runs on a local machine.
