I previously pointed out on-the-fly reference counting collectors as a
counter example. On-the-fly collectors interleave collection with the
mutator, so they don't suffer high latencies or stop the world. The
overheads are higher, but they are naturally concurrent and incremental.

See my previous note where I replied to you after I replied to Jonathan.
