Heap limit percent and Heap limit default values

[bravequickcleverfibreyarn]

Type of issue

Typo

Description

At https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/runtime-config/garbage-collector both chapters Heap limit percent and Heap limit specify

• The default value, which only applies in certain cases, is the greater of 20 MB or 75% of the memory limit on the container. The default value applies if:
  • The process is running inside a container that has a specified memory limit.
  • System.GC.HeapHardLimit is not set.

Since this could be hardly truth for Heap limit percent, I doubt it is correct also for Heap limit. Pariticularly I guess former has only percentage default and latter only absolute.
