AFAICT your test case does not measure garbage collection, but manual memory management using the GC as the memory manager. delete/free are not meant to be called by user code as these are unsafe operations.
Yes, you're right, the test without the explicit calls to delete unveil a 0.68% freed memory per collection cycle.
It's even worse than I had imagined, but it seems to fit in with how bad the GC appeared to slow down my applications.
