LLVM D ... concurrent garbage collector ...

[BLS]

Slightly OT, but may-be interesting for the D/LLVM folks

OCaml comes along now with a parallel garbage collector ... well let's 
have a look :
OCaml on *eight cores* http://planet.ocamlcore.org/


quote :

Fortunately, Jane St. Capital (one of the largest industrial users of 
OCaml) have chosen to fund a "multicore" summer project that aims to 
provide a basic concurrent garbage collector implementation for OCaml. 
The team from the Université Pierre et Marie Curie, led by Emmanuel 
Chailloux, intend to complete this project during the summer of 2008.

********************

We have already written to team to suggest that they might also make 
their run-time compatible with the excellent LLVM project because this 
would make it much easier for open source developers to reuse this 
exciting technology.

and folks, beside : D at TIOBE is a joke. Search for OCaml jobs or who 
is using OCaml.
