- chrisseaton 7y agoWhy would you ever encounter a fragmented Eden in a garbage collector?
- scott_s 7y agoI wasn't thinking of that case in particular, but that there are other instance in a garbage collector where you will not just be able to bump a pointer: you need to request more memory from the OS, or you need to start a collection phase before satisfying a memory request.
