+.Sh GC ENVIRONMENT
+The Ruby garbage collector (GC) tracks objects in fixed-sized slots,
+but each object may have auxiliary memory allocations handled by the
+malloc family of C standard library calls (
+.Xr malloc 3 ,
+.Xr calloc 3 ,
+and
+.Xr realloc 3 ) .
+In this documentation, the "heap" refers to the Ruby object heap
+of fixed-sized slots, while "malloc" refers to auxiliary
+allocations commonly referred to as the "process heap".
+Thus there are at least two possible ways to trigger GC:
+.Bl -hang -offset indent
+.It Sy 1
+Reaching the object limit.
+.It Sy 2
+Reaching the malloc limit.
+.Pp
+.El
+In Ruby 2.1, the generational GC was introduced and the limits are divided
+into young and old generations, providing two additional ways to trigger
+a GC:

+as well as C compiler options. Using lower values for these may allow
+applications to keep more Fibers or Threads running; but increases the
+chance of SystemStackError exceptions and segmentation faults (SIGSEGV).
