Epoch-based GC is an efficient mechanism for deferring destruction of +shared objects until no pointers to them can exist. + +Everything in this crate except the global GC can be used in `no_std` environments, provided that +`alloc` feature is enabled. + +## Usage + +Add this to your `Cargo.toml`: + +```toml +[dependencies] +crossbeam-epoch = "0.9" +``` + +## Compatibility + +Crossbeam Epoch supports stable Rust releases going back at least six months, +and every time the minimum supported Rust version is increased, a new minor +version is released.
