This post will be devoted to that subject, with some of the questions asked brought into highlight and answered using a lot of information coming from a [...]]]> http://chaoticjava.com/posts/gc-tips-and-memory-leaks/feed/ 13 http://chaoticjava.com/posts/parallel-and-concurrent-garbage-collectors/ http://chaoticjava.com/posts/parallel-and-concurrent-garbage-collectors/#comments Tue, 08 Jan 2008 06:13:12 +0000 Aviad http://chaoticjava.com/posts/parallel-and-concurrent-garbage-collectors/ dzone_url = "http://chaoticjava.com/posts/parallel-and-concurrent-garbage-collectors/";In the last post, I’ve been talking about the basics of garbage collection and the generational garbage collector. While the generational garbage collector brought huge performance benefits by getting the large, old generation memory area to be infrequently visited by the collector, it still wasn’t enough for the new era of faster processors and memory [...]]]> http://chaoticjava.com/posts/parallel-and-concurrent-garbage-collectors/feed/ 14 http://chaoticjava.com/posts/how-does-garbage-collection-work/ http://chaoticjava.com/posts/how-does-garbage-collection-work/#comments Wed, 02 Jan 2008 06:05:19 +0000 Aviad http://chaoticjava.com/posts/how-does-garbage-collection-work/ dzone_url = "http://chaoticjava.com/posts/how-does-garbage-collection-work/";It seems to me that the importance of garbage collection in Java (and other garbage collected languages) is disproportional to the explanations given about it. While there would be millions of articles when you look for JavaFX examples, there would be only a couple if you tried to search about the “Parallel Compacting Collector” mentioned [...]]]> http://chaoticjava.com/posts/how-does-garbage-collection-work/feed/ 63
