Clearly Tomita's popularization of GLR in 1985 uses forking and merging of the reduced-productions stack, as called graph-structured stack (GSS). You can clearly see the merging of the branches along the GSS in section 4.6 of this tutorial-survey paper:
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.132.2321&rep=rep1&type=pdf
If all of the branches of the GSS are thus merged, then GLR returns to LR temporarily until the next arbitrary-length look-ahead is encountered. This is what eliminates the exponential explosion that you keep fearing. Yes, a trivial exponential explosion would occur for @-code: from 1 (equals 2 to the power of 0) main-trunk along the LR reduced-productions stack to 2 (equals 2 to the power of 1) when encountering a •contiguous sequence• of @-code, but then the exponential explosion stops at the end of the •contiguous sequence• of @-code as all branches of the GSS are merged back to LR's single main-trunk.
