It sounds rather similar to Martin's proposal, except with different coefficients and slightly different definitions (but the "total number of traceable objects" should be roughly equal to the number of objects in the oldest generation, and the "number of pending trace operations" roughly equal to the number of survivor objects after a collection of the middle generation). Am I missing something? _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
