Shenandoah is the low pause time garbage collector that reduces GC pause times by performing more garbage collection work concurrently with the running Java program. Shenandoah does the bulk of GC work concurrently, including the concurrent compaction, which means its pause times are no longer directly proportional to the size of the heap. Garbage collecting a 200 GB heap or a 2 GB heap should have the similar low pause behavior. Shenandoah does not have any special needs from the OS, but the build might require fiddling with code.

Solaris Additional target; tested by community. Others The porting should be trivial, please try and contact Shenandoah devs with your success and failure reports. Shenandoah does need to implement some hardware-specific bits. Porting requires some assembly-level coding. Supported Comment x86_64 Primary tar
