"its not about size, its about predictable response time."

Far as GC's, it's also about size if it's a constrained embedded system. I've seen a number of GC papers discussing tradeoffs between size (i.e. RAM use) vs speed/latency. This even factors in a bit on the large ones like Vega where they were still balancing those factors to get an optimal, "pauseless" GC for accelerating enterprise apps.

I agree on the other points.
