I've always wondered what the point of a System.gc() was... what applications would calling System.gc() be useful if the JVM has the right to choose wether or not it gets called?
I guess that the main purpose is for "real-time" applications, e.g., UI can afford to wait .1 seconds after some user actions, but it will be great trouble to explain to the user why suddently the system is frozen for 5 seconds, and, sure, real real-time applications are more demanding. Note that since gc calls does not affect any program visible functionality (except timing) VM is allowed to interprete them as a hint, which does not mean that it do ignore them. -- Regards, ASK
