Just for interest in some optimization: I disable it (but replace it) in DLL's, i mean, there's no need to have 2 GC running at a time (one for the exe and one for the DLL), so i disable the one in the dll and then replace it with the same from the exe. I link my dll with gcstub.obj to use a dummy gc so file size is smaller. So after all...i never disable gc. GC is a good feature, i always use it in executables but when i do a gc full collect under heavy load programs (great amount of mb of ram) the thing gets quiet slow.
