# 가비지 컬렉션 (Garbage Collection)
|
|
|
|
## 매 한 줄
|
|
> **"매 도달 불가능 (unreachable) 한 객체를 자동으로 회수하는 runtime memory manager"**. 1959 LISP의 mark-and-sweep 부터 현대의 ZGC/Shenandoah/G1 까지 — 매 generational + concurrent + region-based 방향으로 진화. 매 sub-millisecond pause 의 실용화 (2024+).
|
|
|
|
## 매 핵심
|
|
|
|
### 매 GC 의 근본 작업
|
|
- **Mark**: GC root (stack, globals, registers) 부터 reachable graph traversal.
|
|
- **Sweep / Compact / Copy**: unreachable 객체의 회수 + 매 fragmentation 의 처리.
|
|
|
|
### 매 주요 알고리즘
|
|
- **Mark-and-Sweep**: 매 simple, 매 fragmentation 발생.
|
|
- **Mark-Compact**: 매 sweep 후 live object 의 compact — fragmentation X.
|
|
- **Copying (Cheney)**: 매 from-space → to-space 의 live copy. 매 generational young gen 에 사용.
|
|
- **Generational**: 매 weak generational hypothesis — 매 young die young. 매 young gen frequent + old gen rare.
|
|
- **Concurrent / Incremental**: 매 mutator thread 와 동시 실행 — pause 의 최소화.
|
|
- **Region-based (G1, ZGC, Shenandoah)**: 매 heap 의 region 분할 — 매 partial collection.
|
|
|
|
### 매 응용
|
|
1. JVM (G1 default since Java 9, ZGC production since Java 17, Shenandoah).
|
|
2. V8 (Orinoco — concurrent + parallel + incremental).
|
|
3. Go (concurrent tri-color mark-sweep, sub-ms pause).
|
|
4. .NET CLR (generational + LOH).
|
|
5. CPython (reference counting + cycle detector).
|
|
|
|
## 💻 패턴
|
|
|
|
### Tri-color Marking (concurrent GC 의 기반)
|
|
```python
|
|
# Tri-color invariant: White (unmarked), Gray (marked, children pending), Black (done)
|
|
WHITE, GRAY, BLACK = 0, 1, 2
|
|
|
|
def tri_color_mark(roots, heap):
|
|
for obj in heap:
|
|
obj.color = WHITE
|
|
gray_set = set()
|
|
for r in roots:
|
|
r.color = GRAY
|
|
gray_set.add(r)
|
|
while gray_set:
|
|
obj = gray_set.pop()
|
|
for child in obj.refs:
|
|
if child.color == WHITE:
|
|
child.color = GRAY
|
|
gray_set.add(child)
|
|
obj.color = BLACK
|
|
# White = unreachable -> sweep
|
|
return [o for o in heap if o.color == WHITE]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Write Barrier (concurrent GC 의 invariant 유지)
|
|
```c
|
|
// Dijkstra-style: black -> white write 발생 시 child를 gray로 승격
|
|
void write_barrier(Object* parent, Object** field, Object* new_val) {
|
|
if (parent->color == BLACK && new_val && new_val->color == WHITE) {
|
|
new_val->color = GRAY;
|
|
gray_queue_push(new_val);
|
|
}
|
|
*field = new_val;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Generational Allocation (bump allocator)
|
|
```rust
|
|
struct YoungGen { start: *mut u8, top: *mut u8, end: *mut u8 }
|
|
|
|
impl YoungGen {
|
|
fn alloc(&mut self, size: usize) -> Option<*mut u8> {
|
|
unsafe {
|
|
let new_top = self.top.add(size);
|
|
if new_top > self.end { return None; } // trigger minor GC
|
|
let p = self.top;
|
|
self.top = new_top;
|
|
Some(p)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Reference Counting + Cycle Detection (CPython)
|
|
```python
|
|
class Obj:
|
|
def __init__(self):
|
|
self.refcount = 1
|
|
def incref(self): self.refcount += 1
|
|
def decref(self):
|
|
self.refcount -= 1
|
|
if self.refcount == 0:
|
|
for child in self.refs: child.decref()
|
|
free(self)
|
|
# Cycle: a.refs=[b], b.refs=[a] -> refcount 영원히 >0 -> cycle collector 필요
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Finalizer (resource cleanup, careful)
|
|
```java
|
|
// Java AutoCloseable + try-with-resources >>> finalize() (deprecated in Java 9+)
|
|
try (var conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url)) {
|
|
// use conn
|
|
} // auto-close, deterministic
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Soft / Weak / Phantom Reference
|
|
```java
|
|
WeakReference<Cache> ref = new WeakReference<>(cache);
|
|
// GC가 free하면 ref.get() == null. Cache 구현에 자주 사용
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### G1 / ZGC tuning (JVM)
|
|
```bash
|
|
java -XX:+UseZGC -Xmx16g -XX:+UseLargePages MyApp
|
|
# ZGC: <1ms pause, multi-TB heap (Java 21+)
|
|
java -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 MyApp
|
|
# G1: pause-target driven, default since Java 9
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 매 결정 기준
|
|
| 상황 | Approach |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Low-latency service (<10ms p99) | ZGC, Shenandoah, Go GC |
|
|
| Throughput batch | Parallel GC (JVM), G1 |
|
|
| Embedded / no-GC | Rust, C++ RAII |
|
|
| Predictable real-time | No GC + arena allocator |
|
|
| Reference cycles 빈번 | tracing GC > refcount |
|
|
|
|
**기본값**: 매 modern JVM 의 **G1** (or ZGC for >4GB heap), Go 의 **default concurrent collector**.

## 🤖 LLM 활용
|
|
**언제**: GC tuning, OOM 분석, GC log 해석, allocation pattern 최적화.
|
|
**언제 X**: 매 hot loop allocation 미세조정 — profiler (async-profiler, pprof) 가 우선.
|
|
|
|
## ❌ 안티패턴
|
|
- **System.gc() 호출**: hint 일 뿐, full GC 강제로 pause 유발.
|
|
- **finalize() 의존**: 매 deprecated. AutoCloseable 사용.
|
|
- **Large object 의 young gen 할당 가정**: TLAB overflow → tenuring promotion 발생.
|
|
- **WeakReference cache 의 무한 신뢰**: 매 GC pressure 시 즉시 회수 — cold start.
|
|
|
|
## 🧪 검증 / 중복
|
|
- Verified (Jones et al. *The Garbage Collection Handbook* 2nd ed., OpenJDK ZGC docs 2024).
|
|
- 신뢰도 A.
