In programming languages with automatic memory management garbage collection plays an important role of cleaning unused memory. Garbage collection algorithms have been developed for many years and aim to maximize the application’s performance. This paper presents and compares a performance of five garbage collection algorithms present in current version of Java 12 in three applications with different object lifetime span. The analysis covered the system responsiveness, garbage collector workload and application throughput at high application load.
