"I think it's worth noting that all MarkAndSweep algorithms have an 
execution time proportional to the size of the entire object space 
rather than the number of live objects. This (in addition to the need to 
pause system operation while executing) makes them less attractive than 
the various semi-space scavenging algorithms that copy live objects from 
"from space" to "to space". No such pauses are needed, and execution 
time is proportional to the number of live objects rather than available 
space. A price paid for this advantage is a factor of two increase in 
the available memory required."

Thank you,
