title: Java Garbage Collection Time?
body: <p>I have a very performance sensitive application in Java. (I know I should actually use C or something else. But it's Java now.) I'm trying to avoid creating and throwing away objects. Now I need to know how much garbage collecting is going on still.</p>
  
  <p><strong>How can I find out ?</strong></p>
  
  <p>If possible I would like to have a sort of number in milliseconds or nanoseconds something that doesn't require installation of more software.</p>
