New GC features on CLR 2.0 SP1

Hatena タグ: XNA,.NET

There are some new GC features introduced in CLR 2.0 SP1.

• Latency modes
• GC collection mode on force collection
• STARTUP_TRIM_GC_COMMIT and gcTrimCommitOnLowMemory

Two of three were referred in Chris Lvon's WebLog.

• New In Orcas Part 1: What we’ve been doing
• New In Orcas Part 2: GC Collection Modes
• New In Orcas Part 3: GC Latency Modes

Basically this is  good news to real time .NET applications such as XNA, but the desktop CLR and modorn CPUs have had enough high performance; the real showstopper is, I think, the performance of Xbox 360 CPU and Compact Framework GC algorithm.
