It depends on the number of garbage collections, so ultimately on
how much your app uses memory/triggers collections.
It seems that code is enabled only when USE_UNMAP is defined
and we currently don't enable it in the default build.
Care to try it out in your copy and report any issues/results?
You'd just need to add:
AC_DEFINE(USE_UNMAP)
somewhere in the configure.in file in libgc/ and
reautogen/reconfigure/rebuild.
