Abstract
The Java language may be the most widely used programming language to rely on garbage collection,but it is by no means the first.The garbage collection implementation is key to the superior performance of the Java Virtual Machine(JVM).In this paper,we analyze the garbage collection strategies employed by the JVM,some performance implications of various garbage collection strategies,and explain how to assist the Garbage Collector to yield better performance.
