Suppress the garbage collector

Hey Folks,

I know this is taboo but we have a long running highly availble app that is
being affected by the garbage collector.

In .NET 1.1 there were issues because of the aggressive GC and under 2.0 it
appears much worse (i.e. the garbage collector is even more aggressive).

We have noticed that there are the Add/RemoveMemoryPressure hints to the GC
with the amount of unmanaged memory allocated.

Can these be used as tricks to make the GC less aggressive?

Any other ideas without actually going back to the unmanaged world?
Would just making things unsafe in critical areas and doing the memory
management ourselves make more sense?
