> HdrHeap::coalesce_str_heaps doesn't properly calculate the new heap size for a few reasons:
>  1) It doesn't current walk the HdrHeap chain (m_next).
>  2) It doesn't account for HdrHeap objects that point to the same string in the HdrStrHeap.
> The easiest fix for this is to completely walk all of the HdrHeap objects in the chain and sum up the size of every string; obviously this approach means that strings that were previously aliased will now become independent copies on coalesce; however, the alternative solution that allows continued aliasing would be pretty messy.
> I'm proposing we just properly determine the size but allow the user to minimizing coalescing by making the read only heap sizes configurable and the StrHdrHeap and HdrHeap default sizes configurable.
