What kind of improvement are we looking at by tuning GC?
Is there a recommended app size /setup after which it actually makes sense to bother with GC?
This all comes to mind because any extra dependencies in my app are an ongoing pain in the ass; got plenty of those already. If this could give me a 20% speed boost - hell yeah, I'll try that. If it's a 0.4% ... nope.
From the first glance, it seems easier to do nothing, than to try something that may work.
