/**
 * Calls to System.gc(), Runtime.getRuntime().gc(), and System.runFinalization() are not advised. Code should have the
 * same behavior whether the garbage collection is disabled using the option -Xdisableexplicitgc or not. Moreover,
 * "modern" jvms do a very good job handling garbage collections. If memory usage issues unrelated to memory leaks
 * develop within an application, it should be dealt with JVM options rather than within the code itself.
