Description Tomas Hurka 2008-07-11 15:42:14 UTC
Currently the path to nearest GC root is hard to read, since the path to GC root goes through references which is not ordered, so on one level 3rd reference is 
expanded, on next level 15th reference is expanded, on next level 6th reference is expanded etc. This can be improved to put the reference to the GC root as 
the first one in list of references for particular instance. This way the path to GC root will be much easily visible.

Log: issue #139744, computation of references rewritten - all references are now computed on the first request for any instance and they are remembered for future reqests. Issue #139747, reference to GC root is put on the first place in references list
