Generational garbage collection is not that difficult. When you have a working mark & sweep GC, extending it to be generational is rather straight forward and can greatly reduce GC runtime. Most of all you wouldn't have to care about long lived objects like code itself anymore, since it's only for the first couple of runs where it gets marked. Adding generations to the GC is probably one of the simplest ways to improve FGs performance.
