Poor phrasing on my part. Certainly not bad in any respect for web stuff.

I merely meant that this is a welcome upgrade that specifically benefits web applications, even if it carries a minor computational performance penalty.

Ah, I see what you mean. It's a domain in which you're happy to give up a couple percent points of throughput to bring down the 99% latency, which that option will do. Not necessary, but it will be nice.

Sure but does it have web support like Django or Rails? There’s more to it than performance when it comes to web dev!

Yes it certainly does https://github.com/obsidiansystems/obelisk

[Disclaimer, I work at the company behind this.]

That looks pretty cool, I’ll try it this weekend!

But a low-latency GC won't solve that problem.

Web support...?

He means an ecosystem where 99% of the work needed to build yet another CRUD app is done for you.

I mean the web eco-system that allows you to develop web applications quickly.
