4 After a busy week (unfortunately not working on my thesis), I'll move on to
5 mark-sweep algorithms (I've covered the basic reference counting stuff for
8 The `GC book`__ start with some *obvious* optimizations about making the
9 marking phase non recursive using an explicit stack and methods to handle stack
12 __ http://www.amazon.com/Garbage-Collection-Algorithms-Automatic-Management/dp/sitb-next/0471941484
14 Since current D's GC is mark-sweep, I think I have to take a (deeper) look at
15 it now, to see what optimizations is actually using (I don't think D GC is
16 using the primitive recursive algorithm) and take that as the base ground to
17 look for improvements.
