So for you a "generation" has no relation to a "collection"? If not, what is your definition of a generation? Does Julia just have two generations, short term and long term? And each object in the short term generation has a collection count. Once the collection count hits 2 the object is promoted to long term generation by marking it, but it stays right where it is in the same "pool"? Bill.
