Generational collection has improved the efficiency of garbage collection in fast-allocating programs by focusing on collecting young garbage, but has done little to reduce the co...
To date, the most commonly used criterion for invoking garbage collection (GC) is based on heap usage; that is garbage collection is invoked when the heap or an area inside the he...
