Thanks for the info. I just understood the basic concept of GC in a VM. That was an interesting read and gave me some more insight on what GC is and how it works.
I think I'll try G1 with DS. Maybe I'll find a magic configuration that will allow me to export a full server def like the old days (admittedly I don't think I've tried with 7.6.04 GA release).
