Visualising the Train Garbage Collector
Overview This paper presents a novel method for visualising an incremental garbage collector, based on the well-known Train algorithm, that generates concise snapshots of its state and informative graphs of its operation over time. To obtain these visualisations the authors used GCspy, a generic heap visualisation framework. The paper shows how this easy-to-use tool provided a visualisation model that was effective in both confirming our pre-existing beliefs about the collector's operation and, more interestingly, highlighting unexpected patterns in its behaviour.
