Re: gc runs as a separate thread ?

All threads in SableVM are stopped in order to run GC (stop the world). 
GC is started when an attempt to allocate a new object is made but there 
is not enough heap space to support the allocation.  Look in 
src/libsablevm/gc_copying.c The garbage collection process is started in 
the last function in that file.
