🧹Garbage collection algorithms identify and collect unused objects in memory to free up space.
⏳The tri-color algorithm uses three colors to mark objects as reachable or garbage.
🔀Compaction rearranges objects in memory to create larger blocks of free space.
🧱Generational hypothesis states that young objects are more likely to be garbage than old objects.
⚡️Optimizing garbage collection reduces application downtime and improves performance.
