The quoted text is talking about small objects, which are packed 
together in run objects.  All small objects within each particular run 
are of the same size class.  So, one run may contain an array of 16-byte 
objects, another may contain an array of 24-byte objects, and so on.

The small objects within each run are tracked by bitmaps at the 
beginning of each run.  Page runs are tracked by red-black trees.
