| Simple garbage collection tests test that GC is able to collect simple objects. |
| The test executes the following for several iterations: create array of objects, |
| then null all references and refill the array with new objects. The test uses |
| notions of garbage producer (nsk.share.gc.gp.GarbageProducer) and memory strategy |
| (nsk.share.gc.gp.MemoryStrategy) to alter it's behaviour. The tests automatically |
| adjust parameters to memory available to JVM as returned by Runtime.maxMemory(). |
| Tests with "high" memory strategy (*High) create small number of big objects, |
| tests with "low" memory strategy (*Low) create huge number of small objects. |
