How is it done? I understand the basic mark-and-sweep garbage collection algorithm, but it's not clear how it could be done a little bit at a time. Can anyone post a brief summary or at least some pointers to information so that I may educate myself? -- Bill Roman {ihnp4,decvax,allegra,...}!uw-beaver!tikal!persci!roman Summation, Inc, (formerly Personal Scientific Corporation) 18702 142nd Ave NE Woodinville, WA 98072 (206) 486-0991

A good paper to read is: "A Real-Time Garbage Collector Based on the Lifetimes of Objects" by Lieberman and Hewitt it can be found in the June 1983 Vol 26 Number 6 issue of CACM
