Hi!

I'm currently diggin' though kaffe's internals. What is the difference
between KFREE and gc_free?

My assumption is that KFREE clears the mem at once, and gc_free marks
the mem to be freed by the garbage  collector? Am I right?

In which situation should one preference which method?

regards - Marc
