  Issue #4688: Add a heuristic so that tuples and dicts containing only
  untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
  reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
  on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.

  (trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
  Shootout 40% faster)
