Abstract

Two techniques for improving garbage collection were presented, namely, generational stack collection and profile-driven pretenuring. The first is applicable to stack based implementations of functional languages while the second is useful for any generational collector. Both techniques were implemented in a generational collector used by the TIL compiler and have observed decreases in garbage collection times of as much as 70% and 30%, respectively.
