Seconded.
And I really hope that more than just a look (and a discussion) will
come out of this. Making our GC more efficient is an important
development goal, of which over the years we've seen several attempts,
but unfortunately little advancement in practice. I hope interested
individuals will step forward and continue developing this (or any
other) initiative so that we will eventually be able to replace our GC
with a better one.
Thanks in advance for developing this aspect of Emacs.
