Such write barriers are a performance problem, too.
What I've read about garbage collection techniques I got the
impression that you could implement a better and more efficient
collector with write barriers that would outweigh the performance loss
that comes with the barriers.
That's true if the language (like Java) uses a *lot* of gc allocation. D
programs tend to do much less because it has support for value types.
Ok, thanks for the answer.
