Same here.

I'd like to know that too. The JDK docs say that it's unsafe etc, but *why*?
What is so difficult about implementing it? The way I see it, the JVM has to
keep track of when all referces to a given object has been eliminated, right?
So what's stopping the JVM from executing the finalizer before throwing the
object away?
