> I haven't used it I was just curious because the JVM is a mature (and parallel) garbage collector. Slightly pedantic, but the JVM is a bit more than its arbage collectors[^1]. But it is true that the JVM has been the experimentation bed of garbage collection, not because academics have been specially daring with the JVM, but because JVM programs have been used extensively, and often so in ways that strain any single GC technique.

And those are the ones I know of; I'm pretty sure I'm leaving quite a few out.
