> If you also want to minimize GC pause latency, then you need to get fancier like Go (I think they have a concurrent collector that can be paused when it's time slice is up and resumed later).

How possible would it be for Julia to add this? I keep thinking Julia would be great for graphical environments and gaming, but high GC latency won't work there.

Very doable, “just” a bunch of moderately tricky compiler work. Will happen at some point. Things that would make it happen sooner: someone interested in compiler work decides to do it; some company decides to fund it.
