You are not serious here, are you?  How could Emacs possibly know, at
the level that does GC, whether the Lisp program that currently runs
will need more memory in the future?  The program itself may know that
(and then it may not, if memory is allocated by some low-level
primitive), but GC itself?  If you think it can have powers for such
prophecy, we should probably use that to write a program to advise us
which shares to buy, and get rich -- fast.
