Questions to anyone using Crystal in production:

* How is the GC latency, considering that Crystal uses the Boehm GC?

* Have you encountered any problems in long running programs due to the conservative nature of Boehm?

We wrote https://github.com/compumike/idle-gc to run GC when the long-running process is otherwise mostly idle. It’s been fine for us.
