For the curious, this is a deep, technical analysis of the latest generations (no pun intended!) of best-of-breed garbage collectors on the JVM. By best-of-breed, I mean G1, Shenandoah, and ZGC. Honestly, for those of us who grew up on the 90s JVM, seeing millisecond GC pauses is kinda of a miracle. GC research didn't stop in the 90s, and the JVM has always been on the cutting-edge in putting the latest research into production.
