To make it sensible with respect to the watermark_scale_factor parameter, the unit is in fractions of 10,000. The default value of -15,000 on !DISCONTIGMEM configurations means that up to 150% of the high -watermark will be reclaimed in the event of a pageblock being mixed due -to fragmentation. The level of reclaim is determined by the number of -fragmentation events that occurred in the recent past.
