2 somehow relevant papers from PLDI and ISMM

[Gregor Wagner]

I got a lot of positive feedback for my ISMM talk and people are happy that firefox is catching up again with GC performance for multiple tabs.
2 other papers might be relevant for some of you:
The first paper talks about GC trigger mechanism based on the overall memory pressure.
The second paper is from the chrome team and explains sandboxing JIT code.

Looks like mailman stripped the attachements, even though I approved
the message. Not sure how to fix, maybe send links?

The JIT-security paper can be found by name:
Language-Independent Sandboxing of Just-In-Time Compilation and Self-Modifying Code

There is only a 2 year old version of the GC paper online so contact me if you want the new version.
Waste Not,Want Not Resource-based Garbage Collection in a Shared Environment
