// The deduplication thread is where the actual deduplication occurs. It waits for
// deduplication candidates to appear on the deduplication queue, removes them from
// the queue and tries to deduplicate them. It uses the deduplication hashtable to
// find identical, already existing, character arrays on the heap. The thread runs
// concurrently with the Java application but participates in safepoints to allow
// the GC to adjust and unlink oops from the deduplication queue and table.
