When the nursery of a capability gets filled, do we have to stop-the-world just for that local nursery gc?. To me this is different than gen0 or gen1 gc because isn't really a shared resource.

Things that survive garbage collection get promoted out of the nursery.

but being promoted to gen0 is allocation, and thus there isn't need to stop the other threads. -- Ruben Astudillo
