I recently reported bugs ([0], [1]) with Facebook's Fresco and React-Native about how their usage of Object.finalize() in critical places hurts GC-performance on Android/Java.
I was asked to to show how getting rid Object.finalize() actually improves performance and memory-use. Apart from a simplistic profile [2], I don't really know how to show something like that.
I'm still convinced it would be good if this got fixed.
