Boosting Quarkus Native Performance: Should You Stick with Space/Time or Switch to Adaptive GC?

Quarkus, the Kubernetes Native Java Framework, has switched its default garbage collection policy from space/time to adaptive GC for native runtime in version 2.13.6.Final. Adaptive GC is designed to trigger GCs aggressively in order to keep memory consumption low. This makes it effective in situations where a low memory footprint is essential, and it appears to perform better under heavy stress.
