public abstract class StopTheWorldCollector
extends SimpleCollector

This class (and its sub-classes) implement per-collector thread behavior and state. MMTk assumes that the VM instantiates instances of CollectorContext in thread local storage (TLS) for each thread participating in collection. Accesses to this state are therefore assumed to be low-cost during mutator time.
