V version: V 0.3.2 c015f15, timestamp: 2022-11-07 08:48:08 +0200
OS: any

What did you do?
Run any apps which require garbage collections.

What did you expect to see?
Fast execution.

What did you see instead?
Slow garbage collection.

Envisioned solution

  1. Use the clover garbage collector: elucent/clover@37bf9bb as it is 2x faster than boehm, much smaller, fully platform-independent, and MIT licensed.
  2. Integrate the garbage collector into V (incl. rewrite in V) so that no external libs are required any more.
  3. Further improve the autofree feature.
