Hello, since the semi-space algortithm recently developed in Harmony GC has obviously better performance than the current partial-forward algorithm when they are used for minor collection, I plan to switch the default minor collection to semi-space algorithm. The results in my runs have no new failures with classlib unit tests, drlvm tests and reg tests, compared to current default GC on Linux/Win 32/64-bit platforms. Although I have strong confidence that the failure cases should be minimum, I still expect there be some regressions with other untested test cases. I hope the semispace GC to be the default in next milestone build. Please forgive me if the switch causes some unexpected failures, and GC people will try best to fix the failures ASAP.
Please let me know if anybody has objections. If no objections, I will make the switch in 12 hours. Thanks for your supports. Thanks, xiaofeng -- http://xiao-feng.blogspot.com
