Actually we have our own gc mechanism which has a proven record of doing things for our application, it never lets our application go out of memory, but it works at high level, now with this robust design we have only issues from JVM's original gc work. Our calculations have proven that if JVM's gc does not work automatically then our real time nodes can work more effectively.

We have 1.3G Ram on our server and our heap You are mistaken, you do not want it to ignore the gc thread, as you would then very fast run out of heap space, you just want to tune the garbage collector a little. To do this, read this page until you understand it: http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/gc1.4.2/ Then you can use the GC Portal tool to help you define the optimal GC configuration for your application: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/GCPortal/ Of course, it could turn out that in order to improve your performance you might have to rewrite parts of your application to be less wasteful with objects.
