Modern programming languages with automatic garbage collection, while convenient, can lead to excessive CPU usage and increased cloud costs. Strategies to mitigate this include tuning GC parameters, switching algorithms, minimizing object creation, adjusting heap size, and scaling instances. Optimizing these factors enhances application performance and reduces expenses.
On a major B2B application different GC algorithms behaviors were studied. This application is basically a web service provider servicing SOAP and REST requests from its clients.
