Hi,

Is it possible to trace GC allocation calls to determine times of 
program "death" and have some stats?

So i want the following information:
   - garbage collection starts at {time}
   - garbage collection stops at {time}
   - (optionally) gc took {time}, collected {size} bytes

thanks.

I may be totally off but I vaguely remember that it is possible to plug 
in one's own garbage collector. It should be possible to write a garbage 
collector that collects some statistics before calling back the default 
GC functions.

I believe you'll have to modify the runtime to achieve this.  See 
the "gc" folder[1]. An example of a custom garbage collector is 
in the "gcstub" folder[2].
