I just posted this blog article: http://flyingfrogblog.blogspot.com/2011/11/what-is-your-garbage-collector.ht ml I used Mathematica to visualize the structure of the clumps (weakly connected components) being collected by my mark region collector whilst running a list-based n-queens solver. In this case, 84% of unreachable connected components are isolated 2-element lists and only a handful have interesting topologies. I'm curious if anyone can think of a common benchmark that is likely to produce more interesting garbage. :-) -- Dr Jon Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com
