a matter of implementation quality how garbage collection is
implemented, as long as no objects are collected that are still
reachable. (Implementation note: the current implementation uses a
-reference-counting scheme which collects most objects as soon as they
-become unreachable, but never collects garbage containing circular
-references.)
+reference-counting scheme with (optional) delayed detection of
+cyclicly linked garbage, which collects most objects as soon as they
