Nope, still there and probably always will be. I think I read on 
the forums that people are working on a better/more precise GC 
though. From what I understand the current one could stand a lot 
of improvement.

It can be, but you would also lose some features, though I'm not 
entirely sure which things exactly. I remember that slices was 
one thing you would no longer have if you disable the GC, but I 
can't think of any others.


The GC isn't really something you would need to disable though. I 
have never had any issues with it, and unless you're doing 
something that might have it run a lot, it shouldn't affect you 
in any way.
