just out of curiosity, what is the size of the heap for KVM (typically)?
i.e., is it worth bothering with an incremental GC for a really tiny
VM? (which I understand is the whole idea behind KVM, correct me if
I am wrong)?
I found out (the hard way...) that a plain and simple stop-the-world
approach can be surprisingly effective with small heaps...
