That's not exactly true... in Erlang, any binary with size > 64 bytes will not be copied. Instead a pointer to a shared memory area will be passed.

If pointers are sent between Erlang processes, how does the per-process GC work without stopping the world?

Big binaries (which yeah, I forgot about) live off to the side and are not GC'd. They're ref counted.
