This can do anything, so could easily cause the GC to run.

Ah drats. You're right. I will fix this by fixing the specialization then.

This is safe to do because we only allocate at the start of the operation, not in the midst of it. So the rss will never grow while we're checking for this.
Additionally, reading the comments in the codes suggest to me the point of checking for signals was for interrupts, not for GC.
So this should make things slightly faster.
