This is essential functionality or a serious bug. Not addressing this blocks progress.
type: refactoring
#704 added a global activity count to accurately detect when the runtime can safely be shut down. On x86 systems this seems to have had minimal impact on performance. On ARM (Grace) this seems to be noticeably more expensive. Investigate ways of reducing contention on the atomic count.
