Abstract

A computer-implemented method and system are provided for reducing garbage collection overhead. The method includes specifying, by a hardware processor from a set of nodes of a Directed Acyclic Graph representing an application program, wherein each of the nodes represents a respective one of a plurality of computation tasks, any of the nodes which store a respective computation result for at least a threshold period of time as cache nodes. The method further includes allocating, by the hardware processor, the respective computation result of each of the cache nodes into a tenure area of a memory.
