Ah, I was curious if anyone else was using Judy this way. I have been using Judy arrays to store all the GC meta info for my jhc compiler and it works really well. Although I no longer depend on it in the default case, I turn it on for debugging and tracking allocations and I found it very useful when prototyping new algorithms without having to modify the heap layout of my run-time. I just store the meta information in judy arrays and profiling and tracing will help me decide whether implementing the change for real is worth it.
