Right. I oversimplified this. Generational/compacting collectors have no walker but
(a) have a second indirection (that slows down things) and (b) are not memory
efficient (as they roughly use twice the space that is theoretically needed).
Certainly Hertz compares his GC against this type. Refer to the paper to get all
the details.
