This paper provides a broad overview of memory management in the Java HotSpot virtual machine (JVM) in
Sun’s J2SE 5.0 release. It describes the garbage collectors available to perform the memory management, and
gives some advice regarding choosing and configuring a collector and setting sizes for the memory areas on
which the collector operates. It also serves as a resource, listing some of the most commonly-used options that
affect garbage collector behavior and providing numerous links to more detailed documentation.
