State of G1's "throughput barriers"?

[Clemens Eisserer]

Hi,

With great excitement I read about the proposal to add a
throughput-mode to G1 - has there been any progress on this?
In some cases the throughput overhead G1 introduced compared to CMS is
quite noticeable, especially for the case where 2-5s pauses are quite
tolerable - i really hoped to get an option to trade a bit of latency
for better throughput.

Thanks, Clemens
