Using concurrent GC has various advantages but in no way makes it deterministic.

True, not by itself.

But concurrent GC is the basis for making deterministic GC, since it gives you the option of scheduling GC work whenever you like rather than pausing the world.

Some concurrent GCs are also deterministic while others aren’t. I’ve written both kinds.

[gpderetta]

you have some very non-standard definition of determinism.

How so?
