Has the work done in
http://www.cs.purdue.edu/homes/grr/snapshot-gc-abstract.html been
ported to Windows? I believe Windows supports the copy-on-write
semantics necessary for that to work, and it should scale to multiple
processors very nicely. Of course, there are probably other
problems....
Just a thought for a technique that might be relevant for servers
running on multiple processors that don't want a lot of locking
overhead.
