Subject: [ELPA] New package: gcmh-mode
Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2020 21:27:44 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <xjfpn4ddmb3.fsf@sdf.org> (raw)

Hi all,

I'd like to propose GCMH as GNU Elpa package.

It enforces a sneaky Garbage Collection strategy to minimize GC
interference with user activity.

During normal use a high GC threshold is set.  When idling GC is
triggered and a low threshold is set.  The intent is to do as much GC
activity as possible when the user is not interacting with Emacs.

<http://akrl.sdf.org/#orgc9536b4>

I've "recently" implemented Stefan's idea to compute the idle timer time
based on the last garbage collection time.

The package is on MELPA since ~2 years with I think a decent number of
(I assume happy) users.

Blaming current master I believe the other two contributors are below 10
contributed lines so I think should be copyright assignment wise okay.

Feedback welcome.

Thanks

  Andrea
