Purely out of interest for the interesting, Simone, can I tag along, too? I
have a few doubts on the new implementation of the new CLR (Server GC)
background GC and a separate GC thread for each processor plus the work
stealing mode (no pun), which may also come into play in this scenario.

Regards,

Jv
