https://dlang.org/spec/garbage.html#how_gc_works

How Garbage Collection Works

The GC works by:

Stopping all other threads than the thread currently trying to allocate GC memory.
‘Hijacking’ the current thread for GC work.
Scanning all ‘root’ memory ranges for pointers into GC allocated memory.
Recursively scanning all allocated memory pointed to by roots looking for more pointers into GC allocated memory.
Freeing all GC allocated memory that has no active pointers to it and do not need destructors to run.
Queueing all unreachable memory that needs destructors to run.
Resuming all other threads.
Running destructors for all queued memory.
Freeing any remaining unreachable memory.
Returning the current thread to whatever work it was doing.
