Yes.

We can see
- overhead of WBs
- overhead of generational gc (increasing dead but un-collected objects)

And this observation is for trivial optimization (WB implementation, and
so on). I want to reduce such overhead. Ideally, it should be same time
with current M&S gc.

Yes. And what "our technique is cool" is we can go this way *gradually*.
We don't change all of them at a time.
