* libGC isn't ready to be the default quite yet... [MouseJstr]
+
+ Enough people have asked so... Once you grab a copy of the
+ libGC library from (http://amber.stormbirds.org/~joshs/gc6.3.tar),
+ you start up a bash shell from inside cygwin and untar
+ the gc6.3.tar. This will produce a gc6.3 directory. Then
+ cd into that directory and type ./configure. Once that is
+ done you type "make" and then "make install". This will
+ spray the various includes and libraries all over your
+ cygwin install (most in /usr/local).
+
+ Now, edit Makefile and change the CC line to use the
+
+ CC = gcc -pipe -DGCOLLECT
+
+ entry. Also change the GCLIB to
+
+ GCLIB = -L/usr/local/lib -lgc
+
+ Remember to comment out the ones no longer used. Do a clean
+ build and good luck. Obviously, this has not been tested
+ by that many people so you really are on the cutting edge
+ but if you have good results, send me a note
+ (joshs@stormbirds.org) so that we can see if it really is
+ ready for prime time.
+
+ What should you see? Well, the map-server should not
+ grow/consume extra memory anymore. More so, it should use
+ dramatically less memory then it did before using the
+ garbage collector.
+
+ The downside is that it will consume a little more CPU...
+
+ The question is, how much? how laggy? what effect on lots
+ of players? I've heard stories saying it makes the server
+ unplayable and others told me that they saw no
+ player-visible effects at all.
