- If Guile is allocating at a GC-managed heap size H, libgc will tend
- to limit the process image size to H*N. But if at the same time the
- user program is mallocating at a rate M bytes per GC-allocated byte,
- then the process stabilizes at H*N*M -- assuming that collecting data
- will result in malloc'd data being freed. It doesn't take a very
- large M for this to be a bad situation. To limit the image size,
- Guile should GC more often -- the bigger the M, the more often.
- Numeric functions that produce bigger and bigger integers are
- pessimal, because M is an increasing function of time. Here is an
- example of such a function:
- (define (factorial n)
- (define (fac n acc)
- (if (<= n 1)
- acc
- (fac (1- n) (* n acc))))
- (fac n 1))
- It is possible for a process to grow for reasons that will not be
- solved by faster GC. In that case M will be estimated as
- artificially high for a while, and so GC will happen more often on
- the Guile side. But when it stabilizes, Guile can ease back the GC
- frequency.
- The key is to measure process image growth, not mallocation rate.
- For maximum effectiveness, Guile reacts quickly to process growth,
- and exponentially backs down when the process stops growing.
- See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.guile.devel/12552/focus=12936
- for further discussion.
