+//! The deferred reference-counting (DRC) collector.
+//!
+//! Warning: this ref-counting collector does not have a tracing cycle
+//! collector, and therefore cannot collect cycles between GC objects!
+//!
+//! For host VM code, we use plain reference counting, where cloning increments
+//! the reference count, and dropping decrements it. We can avoid many of the
+//! on-stack increment/decrement operations that typically plague the
+//! performance of reference counting via Rust's ownership and borrowing system.
+//! Moving a `VMGcRef` avoids mutating its reference count, and borrowing it
+//! either avoids the reference count increment or delays it until if/when the
+//! `VMGcRef` is cloned.
+//!
+//! When passing a `VMGcRef` into compiled Wasm code, we don't want to do
+//! reference count mutations for every compiled `local.{get,set}`, nor for
+//! every function call. Therefore, we use a variation of **deferred reference
+//! counting**, where we only mutate reference counts when storing `VMGcRef`s
+//! somewhere that outlives the Wasm activation: into a global or
+//! table. Simultaneously, we over-approximate the set of `VMGcRef`s that are
+//! inside Wasm function activations. Periodically, we walk the stack at GC safe
+//! points, and use stack map information to precisely identify the set of
+//! `VMGcRef`s inside Wasm activations. Then we take the difference between this
+//! precise set and our over-approximation, and decrement the reference count
+//! for each of the `VMGcRef`s that are in our over-approximation but not in the
+//! precise set. Finally, the over-approximation is replaced with the precise
+//! set.
+//!
+//! The `VMGcRefActivationsTable` implements the over-approximized set of
+//! `VMGcRef`s referenced by Wasm activations. Calling a Wasm function and
+//! passing it a `VMGcRef` moves the `VMGcRef` into the table, and the compiled
+//! Wasm function logically "borrows" the `VMGcRef` from the table. Similarly,
+//! `global.get` and `table.get` operations clone the gotten `VMGcRef` into the
+//! `VMGcRefActivationsTable` and then "borrow" the reference out of the table.
+//!
+//! When a `VMGcRef` is returned to host code from a Wasm function, the host
+//! increments the reference count (because the reference is logically
+//! "borrowed" from the `VMGcRefActivationsTable` and the reference count from
+//! the table will be dropped at the next GC).
+//!
+//! For more general information on deferred reference counting, see *An
+//! Examination of Deferred Reference Counting and Cycle Detection* by Quinane:
+//! <https://openresearch-repository.anu.edu.au/bitstream/1885/42030/2/hon-thesis.pdf>
