As jkotas said in the discussion:

These types of GCs typically trade throughput for shorter pause times. For example, they often use GC read barriers that make accessing object reference fields significantly slower.

Judging from the benchmarks that were posted there yesterday, the lowest pause times lead to approximately double the execution time. It might be worthwhile for those wanting reduced pauses but obviously not for anyone else.
