Well, that would be good, because when we asked him in the Q&A at FOSDEM he had no idea about colored pointers and did not mention semi-space collectors at all, and had no plan to add it.
I initially thought about using whippet, but I will stay clear and rather use MPS https://memory-pool-system.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ https://memory-pool-system.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
- milesrout 2y agoThat is baffling because in July he wrote "One of Whippet’s collectors is a semi-space collector."

I didn't attend the talk and don't know him at all so wouldn't want to speak for him but from personal experience one can find oneself saying some bizarre things under stress/pressure when giving a presentation in front of lots of people. And then one looks back and goes: "why did I say that??"
