I read a very informative blog post today about garbage collectors:

http://xtzgzorex.wordpress.com/2012/10/11/demystifying-garbage-collectors/

At the bottom of the post the author links to Parrot's GC
implementation as example code. That's kind of cool.

On a related note, I am planning to take a stab at adding finalizers
and proper GC finalization to Parrot as soon as I've got a free moment
in my schedule. If anybody else reading this is interested in joining
that project, let me know.

Thanks,
