It's fine for people "in the know" who take the time to test their code
using various gc parameters. But most people don't (I know I never did,
and until recently I didn't even know the gc could have such a
disastrous effect on performance).

I don't think expecting people to tweak gc parameters when they witness
performance problems is reasonable.
