# for gc.c
# The GC module provides an interface to Ruby's mark and
# sweep garbage collection mechanism.
#
# Some of the underlying methods are also available via the ObjectSpace
# module.
#
# You may obtain information about the operation of the GC through
# GC::Profiler.

# This method is defined with keyword arguments that default to true:

# def GC.start(full_mark: true, immediate_sweep: true); end

# Use full_mark: false to perform a minor GC.
# Use immediate_sweep: false to defer sweeping (use lazy sweep).
#
# Note: These keyword arguments are implementation and version dependent. They
# are not guaranteed to be future-compatible, and may be ignored if the
# underlying implementation does not support them.
