It seems that the BDW GC, since version 7 or so, supports inline
allocation with thread-local freelists. See gc_inline.h. We can
probably improve our allocation speed significantly by using this
allocator in Guile. It would require adding a freelist to scm_i_thread,
and passing the thread around wherever we would want inline allocation,
but that is already the case in the VM.
Could be a neat little project for someone -- mostly on master, where we
require BDW-GC 7.2.
Cheers,
Andy
