| Description | The documentation doesn't explain that GC is cross-pool. This is an unusual (unique?) feature of the MPS. |
| Analysis | See mail in "evidence" for starting text. Perhaps it should appear in the overview <http://www.ravenbrook.com/project/mps/...n/1.111/manual/html/guide/overview.html> and with a bit more detail in the chapter on GC <http://www.ravenbrook.com/project/mps/...1.111/manual/html/topic/collection.html>. |
