Is there some recommendation based on memory size? Hide Gc Cons Percentage: Floating point number: 0.1 [ State ]: CHANGED outside Customize. Portion of the heap used for allocation. Hide Garbage collection can happen automatically once this portion of the heap has been allocated since the last garbage collection. If this portion is smaller than ‘gc-cons-threshold’, this is ignored. Hide Gc Cons Threshold: Integer: 800000 [ State ]: STANDARD. Number of bytes of consing between garbage collections.
