Garbage collection is a fairly common component in most modern programming languages. Despite its benefits, however, garbage collection can have a negative impact on performance. Garbage collection is an ongoing process that requirescentral processing unitresources, which can affect an application's gener...
Garbage Collection is a feature of Java programming language that automatically manages memory allocation and deallocation for objects created in an eden space.
As an SRE or Java Administrator you need a strong understanding of the Java Garbage Collection mechanism to ensure optimal performance and stability of your Java applications. If you are looking for a basic general overview on the principles of “What is Garbage Collection in Programming?”– you...
垃圾回收机制(GC)对大部分开发者来说应该不陌生,特别是Java开发者或多或少都跟GC打过交道。 GC的优点是实现对堆上分配的内存动态回收,避免内存泄漏。但是GC的缺点是对性能有一定影响,特别是stop the world问题, 而且GC什么时候回收内存是不确定的,开发者无法知晓。 在无锁化编程场景下,用Java这种有GC的语言,一...
In a typical application, most objects are very short-lived. On the other hand, some objects last for a very long time and even until the application is terminated. When using generational garbage collection, the heap area is divided into two areas—a young generation and an old generation—...
Therefore, efficient garbage collection is especially important for those applications. This paper presents a class-based garbage collector for object-oriented programming environments that classifies objects by their types to achieve better gradualness. Grouping objects of the same type into a group, ...

As long as address space is available in the managed heap, the runtime continues to allocate space for new objects. However, memory is not infinite. Eventually the garbage collector must perform a collection in order to free some memory. The garbage collector's optimizing engine determines the ...
Garbage Collection 1. Overview In this quick article, we’ll see how the JVM makes sure to collect the unreachable but cyclic references. First, we’ll explore different types of GC algorithms. After that, we’re going to see how the cyclic references are handled in the JVM. ...
