a precise GC is the one way to go about GC.
An orthogonal question, but is Lucarella's CDGC (still) being
ported? There's
nothing mutually exclusive between a precise and a concurrent
gc, no?
I thought that got stuck on the problem that the linux system
libraries had some sort of threading problem with them.
This is not really what's stopping the porting, is a problem, but
an independent one. My idea was to port the GC as it is in Tango,
and then see how to overcome its limitations.
The problem is it's very hard for me to dedicate time to this
porting effort. The decision to make the port happen is there, I
just how to figure out how and when. I'll keep you posted when I
have news.
