HN discussionSBCL now uses the "write-bitmap"/"card marking" scheme on some platforms, which is a tiny bit faster (1-2% mentioned on sbcl-devel). More interesting is that doing the touch-detection in software allows for finer grained precision (e.g. #+mark-region-gc uses 128 byte cards) than hardware (e.g. 4kiB pages on x86-64, 16kiB on M1) which can drastically affect scavenging time [0]. The precision is also really nice for n…
