The post is written/formatted in a confusing way for those not already versed in garbage collection. In particular, the important but idiosyncratic term "draining" is not given a reference link, but is instead given a different font that makes it fade into the background.
- pizlonator 10y ago"Most of the time in GC is spent performing a depth-first search over marked objects that we call draining." It's a term we use in our code to refer to that depth-first search.
- bdash 10y agoI do agree that the choice of a narrower font for emphasized terms has the opposite effect from what is intended.
