Garbage First LSM 论文

Garbage-First is a server-style garbage collector, targeted for multi-processors with large memories, that meets a soft real-time goal with high probability, while achieving high throughput. Whole-heap operations, such as global mark- ing, are performed concurrently with mutation, to prevent interruptions proportional to heap or live-data size. Concur- rent marking both provides collection "completeness" and identies regions ripe for reclamation via compacting evac- uation. This evacuation is performed in parallel on multi- processors, to increase throughput.
