I've found that system_server will always GC occasionally... Don't know if there is a way around this but my current fix for the game is to average out the delta time I'm passing to my physics loop. Another way to do it, as I've read else where, is to put a low-pass filter on it. My game still stutters due to the GC but the stutter won't make my draw objects "teleport" so dramatically, it's at least bearable now.
