I love flutter/dart, and have some little experience with Java + servers/microservices... So my question is how is GC trashing handled? e.g. if it becomes > some percentage of the running time are isolates "killed/restarted" (if that makes senses, or the whole process)?

When running `wrk` to do performance testing and monitoring in Observatory [1] and with anything we have in production, I haven't seen an Isolate or the process ever die. This may be a question better suited for the Dart VM team, I'll see if I can't ping someone.

And yeah, as a native iOS developer for many years, I finally sat down and built something in Flutter this weekend and really liked it.
