G1 can reclaim humongous objects... * at the end of marking in the GC Cleanup pause. * during full gc. * JDK8u60+ can also reclaim particular types of humongous objects (arrays that do _not_ consist of references to objects) at every young GC. See the release notes for 8u60 at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.oracle.com_technetwork&d=DQIFaQ&c=zUO0BtkCe66yJvAZ4cAvZg&r=zRhnqN6xuCQh8NZ-MtoiYBMlItU6r8UBO9AjZ3c3DEY&m=5pQkGSufUB_aL1XJUcW86zVuBn5xYh1XrUD5N2zcu1M&s=OKbYPqGNR3NGiLzOFh6tXk2cXLnbhFxrp8H4Svff20A&e= /java/javase/8u60-relnotes-2620227.html under "New Features and Changes" for how to control this. (It works for any array of primitive type, not limited to the examples given there - just in case you wonder). Thanks, Thomas This message may contain information that is confidential or privileged.
