What is your read on the lack of discussion of escape analysis?
My own read on this is that it blurs the line with deferred collection/counting, because you could either use it to complement deferral making it cheaper, or avoid deferral because you're getting enough of the benefits of deferral by proving objects dead instead of discovering that they are dead.
