Within the release notes for Go 1.9 it is stated: "Library functions that used to trigger stop-the-world garbage collection now trigger concurrent garbage collection. Specifically, runtime.GC <https://tip.golang.org/pkg/runtime/#GC>, debug.SetGCPercent <https://tip.golang.org/pkg/runtime/debug/#SetGCPercent>, and debug.FreeOSMemory <https://tip.golang.org/pkg/runtime/debug/#FreeOSMemory>, now trigger concurrent garbage collection, blocking only the calling goroutine until the garbage collection is done." Does this mean that the automatic Garbage Collector, which I am guessing, calls these library functions, always triggers concurrent Garbage collection? And that STW pauses have been eliminated from golang entirely?
