"11. I hope that this GC proposal will produce useful results. http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2006/n1943.pdf"
It may be interesting, but Felix uses a precise collector which is potentially much faster, because much store allocated by Felix programs isn't on the GC heap: it is managed by traditional RAII (ctor/dtor) or the machine stack. Boehm is tricky to port and excludes using certain data structures such as tries (page tables). Currently the Felix collector is portable and thread safe but world-stop. I'm looking at a parallel collector as the next step, possibly Chengs. -- John Skaller <skaller at users dot sf dot net> Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
