// of |AllocationContext|s and size pairs.

// The pairs are grouped into |Bucket|s. A bucket is a group of (context, size)
// pairs where the properties of the contexts share a prefix. (Type name is
// considered a list of length one here.) First all pairs are put into one
// bucket that represents the entire heap. Then this bucket is recursively
// broken down into smaller buckets. Each bucket keeps track of whether further
