		klausa on Aug 9, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: New Rust runtime turned on. What next? Targeting 30fps, you have 33ms to render whole frame. Losing 20 ms of that to GC would make things… challenging. And if you're targeting 60fps, that's 16ms. Stop the world for 20ms, and you've missed 1 and 1/4 of a frame.

There are concurrent collectors that do not stop the world (e.g. Azul's) that you might want to look at for game development.
