Adoption is not the same as appropriateness at all.

As far as memory usage goes these benchmarks are completely irrelevant. They use very little memory and they measure it in a way that is unsuitable for a memory benchmark in the first place.

The problem with tracing garbage collection is that it requires a lot (~50%) of spare memory at all times to give the GC time to catch up without slowing the program down too much.

Sure, May be I am wrong and Swift will be just fine for server use cases.
