> As such, it will greatly increase throughput if given multiple cores, and will lead to lower pause times based on this improvement in throughput.

If given many cores or perhaps in a later revision with improved efficiency. Today throughput on a four core CPU seems to be lower.

The mark-region GC has worse throughput with really large heaps compared to the live set (as the cost model doesn't work out), and always had* worse latency on Kandria. But generally throughput with more than two cores tends to be better.

* I expect latency to be better with compacting, but I haven't benchmarked, so I haven't a clue.
