That's exactly what we're talking about, but we do the work that 
was done by the globalisation policy by using the `new shared` 
keyword. We end up with a language that support the very 
foundation of what I'd say is the most solid Garbage Collection 
model.

"To  summarise  these  results,  it  seems  that
although  the  local  heap  collector  performs  many  fewer  
young-
generation collections and fewer synchronisations, the benefits 
are
offset  to  some  extent  by  the  extra  work  being  done  by  
the  col-
lector to maintain the global-heap invariant. "

"Globalising  the  entire  transitive  closure  was  on  average  
93%
slower, and results ranged from 7% faster to 577% slower."

"A garbage collector with local per-processor heaps can outperform
a stop-the-world parallel garbage collector in raw parallel 
through-
put, and exhibits more robust performance through having fewer
all-core synchronisations. "
