Description Andrew Cagney 2007-03-21 20:37:11 UTC
Often there are memory corruption bugs triggered by garbage collection.

Being able to force a garbage collection after each bug would help more quickly
narrow that down.

NB: Triggering a GC is non-trivial, the sequence:
  System.gc(); // please garbage collect when you have a mo'
  Thread.wait (100); // here's a mo'.
works relatively well.
