The java run-time JVM deletes the created objects when it determines that they are no longer being used. This is called as garbage collection in java. In java we can create as many you want and you don’t have to worry about to destroying them. The object is eligible for java garbage collection where there are no more references to that object. So when we call gc() method then it shows the free memory of garbage collection java. In the secondary memory there is lots of wasted memory occupied by some other objects which is display through the java garbage collection.
