Meta Garbage Collection: Using OCaml's GC for Rust Optimization

Soteria Rust utilized OCaml's garbage collector to resolve performance issues in Rust.

Soteria Rust is a symbolic execution tool for verifying Rust programs. We identified a performance issue with Tree Borrows, where a simple loop exhibited quadratic time complexity. By leveraging OCaml's garbage collector, we managed to reduce this to linear time, showcasing the importance of optimization techniques in engineering.
