By my view, 90% of our stack is written in C. 90% C/C++ : kernel, driver, display, algorithm, core shlibs libraries, popular applications 10% pausing-GC: low-volume software, scripting, customer-specific applications, Plus my favorite: app prototyping where they havn't seen the pauses yet, and when they do, they rewrite in C/C++.
