Side note: a limit based on object sizes is likely a much better way to handle the window than just a "number of objects" thing ever was. Doing the size in number of objects was easier, and is fine for source code that tends to have a reasonably normal distribution of sized, but yeah, if you have a few really big objects with lots of history, then it's likely the wrong thing to do just because it can get really expensive.
