JDK-8015774 - Add support for multiple code heaps
Description
The segmented code cache (JDK-8015774) opens up the possibility for selective sweeping of the code cache segments. For example, it could be beneficial to sweep the profiled segment more often than the non-profiled segment.

We have to evaluate different strategies with respect to overall performance.
Comments
I evaluated this while implementing the Segmented Code Cache and it didn't pay off.
