What Go Taught Us About Java Garbage Collection
ParparVM’s GC was tuned by lowering the allocation‑trigger floor, adding configurable thresholds, parallel marking, mutator assistance, and proper weak/soft reference handling. These changes cut RSS from 98 MB to 38 MB, reduced worst‑case GC pauses from seconds to sub‑second, and improved cache hit rates with a recency‑based eviction policy.
