You bypass GC by allocating pools of array buffers at the cost of low-level memory management.

So you add threads to allow a shared objects graph with a side effect of more frequent stop the world. Then you fight stop the world by resorting to low level memory management. But if you go level why not allocate a shared array buffer and share it across workers? Something you can do today without threads.
