☕ Java 26 — JEP 522: G1 throughput improvement by reducing synchronization

· java

java -Xlog:gc*:info -jar app.jar

• This JEP improves G1 throughput by reducing synchronization overhead in remembered-set refinement.

• The good news for teams is that it is mostly a free runtime improvement rather than a new API to learn.

• If your services are write-heavy and already on G1, JDK 26 is worth benchmarking.
