Abstract
A system selects a first garbage collection process from a group of garbage collection processes. When a first thread stores a first set of objects to a first private memory region that is exclusive of any shared objects accessible by one or more additional threads, the system executes a sweeping thread-local garbage collection process upon termination of the first thread, including reclaiming the first private memory region. When a second thread stores to a second private memory region at least one shared object accessible by one or more additional threads, the system executes the selective garbage collection process upon termination of the second thread. The selective garbage collection process includes selectively reclaiming a second subset of memory blocks from the second private memory region allocated for a subset of private objects that are inaccessible from any thread.
