Title
Combining Single-Space and Two-Space Compacting Garbage Collectors
Abstract
The garbage collector presented in this paper makes use of two well known compaction garbage collection algorithms with very different performance characteristics: Cheney's two-space copying collector and Jonker "s single-space sliding compaction collector. We propose a scheme which allows either collector to be used. The run-time memory requirements of the program being executed are used to determine the most appropriate collector. This enables us to achieve a fast collector for heap...
