title: JDK 8 Memory Layout and garbage collection
body: <p>From what I <a href="http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/122" rel="nofollow noreferrer">know</a>, starting with JDK 8 the PermGen will be a past page in java's history. Everything nice and merry... but what will the new Memory Layout look like? Will this affect GC on the new platform?</p>
