# emacs-gc-stats: Does garbage collection actually slow down Emacs?

Is Emacs responsiveness really affected by slow garbage collector?
Should \`gc-cons-threshold' be increased during startup?
Or maybe during the whole Emacs session?
I will try to answer these questions using the real data collected from
Emacs users who installed
<https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/emacs-gc-stats.html> package and submitted
their results to <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-gc-stats/>.
