Visualizing Garbage Collector Algorithms (2014)

Nice to know, I think I can kind of wrap my head around what you are saying. If I understand correctly what you are saying is that for those algorithms (and those of other languages), the moment stuff gets removed from memory does not change (with respect to when other stuff gets removed from me

Visualizing Garbage Collector Algorithms (2014)

The visualizations for `--gc:markAndSweep` and `--gc:arc` wouldn't show any difference to the existing respective visualizations -- for ARC the massive refcounting elimination optimizations that we perform are invisible. For ORC it would be interesting to do but it would likely resemble ARC with

Ran into this old post visualizing garbage collector algorithms and thought to share here. It would be nice to see visualizations like these for Nim! /
