Memory Subsystem Performance of Programs Using Copying Garbage Collection
Heap allocation with copying garbage collection is believed to have poormemory subsystem performance. We conducted a studyofthememory subsystem performance of heap allocation for ...

The garbage collection advantage: improving program locality
As improvements in processor speed continue to outpace improvements in cache and memory speed, poor locality increasingly degrades performance. Because copying garbage collectors ...

Concurrent Garbage Collection Using Program Slices on Multithreaded Processors
We investigate reference counting in the context of a multithreaded architecture by exploiting two observations: (1) reference-counting can be performed by a transformed program s...

Quantifying the performance of garbage collection vs. explicit memory management
Garbage collection yields numerous software engineering benefits, but its quantitative impact on performance remains elusive. One can compare the cost of conservative garbage col...
