Project mention: How exactly does Unity integrate with IDEs - how does the editor build work? | /r/Unity3D | 2023-07-23In the video you basically install .NET 7.0 SDK with the deb packages from Microsoft repos AND mono deb packages from repos laid out in https://www.mono-project.com/ apart from Unity and VS Code. And then you configure VS Code so that it always uses Mono installed in the system (not Unity Editor's own instance???)
I have a library which has an extremely slow free, around 2m for large files, because of unnaturally scattered allocation patterns, but this old conservative GC didn't help at all. It was about 40% slower with libgc. mimalloc was a bit better. Best would be a properly fast GC, like mps https://github.com/Ravenbrook/mps, but this would be too much work.
Great learning project, I'm glad the author is having fun.
If they're interested in bolting on a GC, it couldn't hurt to look at MMtk. (https://www.mmtk.io/) Some high quality collection algorithms, written to be pluggable to various VMs, and written in Rust.
