Hi,

In 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/SpiderMonkey/Internals#Garbage_collector
:

  The GC is a mark-and-sweep, non-conservative (exact) collector. It
is used to hold JS objects and string descriptors (but not property
lists or string bytes), and double-precision floating point numbers.

I'm not sure what "string descriptor" and "property list" mean. Are
"string descriptors" the name of strings, or metadata about strings,
or other things? Is a "property list" a list of data/accessor property
names/values/attributes of an object? I searched "JavaScript string
descriptor" and "JavaScript property list" but didn't get anything
that looked promising.
