1352	[RFC]: Realtime garbage collector for RTEMS	dukeleto		"
Parrot works on RTEMS. I am not sure how our garbage collector
interacts with the real-time-ness of RTEMS, though. It probably needs to be
shut off currently (parrot -G), to retain realtime characteristics. I have been
doing research on realtime gc algorithms, there are a few implemented
on the JVM, JeRTY VM and Jikes RVM. The ""Tortured History
of Real-Time Garbage Collectors"" also seems like an interesting read.

Any changes to the GC API should take into account that a realtime GC algorithm should be possible.
