Hmm, AFAIU "optimized" arraycopy has no GC specifics. Moreover it is, like API magics, codegen-specific and I do not quite see how it can be expressed in vmmagics...
One of the GC specific issues is WB :) But we can have several options how optimize array copy in JIT: make a loop and remove call, use special CPU instructions... After some thoughts I agree that VM magic is not the best candidate here and additional WB method to report several entries at once can be a better solution. -- Mikhail Fursov
