For ZGC/Shenandoah because they're new, and they're new because they're extremely hard to implement well. For C4 because it is expensive and requires kernel patches. Also there isn't a whole lot of need for them in many use cases. Web servers for example have far bigger latency problems than GC, normally. Pauseless GC was historically driven by the HFT/finance sector for that reason.

Also yes, pauseless GC tends to have higher overheads than GC that pauses for longer. Whether that matters or not depends a lot on the use cases and actual size of the overheads. For example ZGC is pauseless but not yet generational. Generational ZGC when it launches will improve throughput significantly.

Google haven't done pauseless GC for V8. I don't know why not because they have done one for Android. ART uses a fully concurrent collector iirc. At any rate, although you can't import a JVM GC to V8, you can run JavaScript on the JVM using GraalJS and use the GCs that way. Though I don't recall off hand if Graal supports ZGC yet. There's no deep reason why it couldn't.
