Comment on Conservative GC: Is It Really That Bad?parent

Comments

Yes, an excellent point. Unfortunately, we do not have such specific benchmarks at the moment (only general benchmarks on the performance of GC), but I guess we should add them.

However, please note, that our conservative GC was also copying (but not full copying) collector, and it also improved locality of references. So an impact on the performance is not so huge as in the case of GC that doesn't provide any compaction at all.
