- pjmlp 8y agoWebAssembly roadmap plans to add GC support, so that is only an interim issue.
- k__ 8y agoWhile I had the impression that GC support means the will expose the JavaScript engine's GC to be used by other languages and I don't know if it would work for all, is the GC really such a big chunk of these runtimes?
