There are several different ways to do garbage collection, so flaws in
one implementation have no bearing on what goes on with another.

The most common complaint that crosses implementations is the
unpredictability of when a gc happens, which can be a problem for a
program with serious real-time constraints. IIRC Java implementations
often have the gc run continuously and incrementally in a separate
thread, which evens out the effect.
