About the number of virtual pages for garbage collection

The following contents are described as the description of "FDS_VIRTUAL_PAGES".
"One of the virtual pages is reserved by the system for garbage collection."

Is it possible to reserve multiple garbage collection virtual pages?

Hi

Please check out the fds_internal_defs.h file. You can edit the do_gc_page to control which pages to garbage collect. 

Best regards,

Simon

The fds_internal_defs.h file is a library file.
I don't want to change that.
Is it possible to set from the API?

When I add more pages for garbage collection, please tell me about the following:
