ABSTRACT:
A system and method are provided for object age detection in garbage collection heaps. In one embodiment, ages of objects in a garbage collection heap at a first virtual machine at a server are determined by detecting a number of garbage collections each object has survived. An age is associated to each object according to the determined ages. The objects are grouped in age ranges, wherein the age ranges correspond to the determined ages. The age ranges are communicated to a second virtual machine at a client.
