In the current runtime, an x10.lang.Activity object is allocated whenever
an async is spawned.

The c++ backend relies on the Boehm GC. You can have a look at our build
scripts to see exactly how it is compiled and linked.
It depends somewhat on the platform.

In java, we "just" use the GC provided by the VM. You can tweak the GC
configuration as you would for a Java application.
The GC implementation itself and the available options depend on the VM
brand/revision you are using.

As a rule of thumb, excessive memory allocation will always eventually hurt
scalability.
