    I think this is a misunderstanding. If the program out-paces the GC because the GC guessed the trigger point wrong, something has to give. In Go, what gives is goroutines have to u…

    The compiler generates code to spill arguments to the stack at synchronous preemption points (function entry). Signal-based preemption has a spill path that saves the full ABI regi…
