Can you recommend some good background reading for those of us who would

IMO, the Microsoft documentation for the C# GC is a good place to start.

It's an overview of a specific collector so you get a concrete understand
of one way to do it, which you can then use as a foundation to build
understanding on etc. It's the only thing I've read on GC and I
understood (at least at the surface level) Andrei's post completely. Plus
it's not too long, and available online for free :)
