Sanity4J was created to simplify running multiple static code
analysis tools on the Java projects. It provides a single entry
point to run all the selected tools and produce a consolidated
report, which presents all findings in an easily accessible
manner.

DM_GC
Dm: Explicit garbage collection; extremely dubious except in benchmarking code (DM_GC)
Code explicitly invokes garbage collection.
Except for specific use in benchmarking, this is very dubious.
In the past, situations where people have explicitly invoked
the garbage collector in routines such as close or finalize methods
has led to huge performance black holes. Garbage collection
can be expensive. Any situation that forces hundreds or thousands
of garbage collections will bring the machine to a crawl.
