as such as szenario might be relevant for some design decisions,
could you tell, what "high frequency" roughly means? What would
you implement differently, if you could start over?

if the gc has to remove many objects, perhaps you can use
gc.set_treshold() to tune for a higher collection frequency. so each
collection run might end up using less time.
