I remember reading it before. My son threw it away when we moved houses, not knowing how important it was. I'd recommend it.

Q: what kind of collection is this real world example illustrating?

A: Copying Garbage Collector (semi space). Chapter 4!

Great book. I was always fascinated by bakers treadmill. Always wanted a real world case where I could implement one with Fibonacci sized mills.

Ironic that this of all books got garbage collected prematurely.
