Garbage collection

Another situation where forcing a garbage collection may be useful is where you're writing a 'real time' application and you don't want the garbage collector to kick in whilst the program is in the middle of some time critical operation.

Calling System.gc() prior to starting the critical operation minimizes the chance of this happening.

The garbage collector works automatically, whether you request it to or not. However, it is possible to make a garbage collector request, by invoking the System.gc() method. When garbage collector starts its work, you may have a short pause in the application's execution. This is the reason why you should only invoke the System.gc() method at the right time, such as before performing a huge task or when the application is idle, waiting for user's input.
