Waste not, want not: resource-based garbage collection in a shared environment
To achieve optimal performance, garbage-collected applications must balance the sizes of their heaps dynamically. Sizing the heap too small can reduce throughput by increasing the...

A Localized Tracing Scheme Applied to Garbage Collection
We present a method to visit all nodes in a forest of data structures while taking into account object placement. We call the technique a Localized Tracing Scheme as it improves lo...

The garbage collection advantage: improving program locality
As improvements in processor speed continue to outpace improvements in cache and memory speed, poor locality increasingly degrades performance. Because copying garbage collectors ...
