Comments:
Use this routine to validate memory allocations, monitored freed memory,
and, if the operating system supports it, to compact memory heaps. Use this
routine in preference to the validate memory strategy, set using the memory_strategy
run-time tunable.
If you set the Compact memory flag, the routine attempts to compact memory
to the extent that the operating system allows. There is no information flag
setting that indicates the result.
