Abstract

A process, a computer program product, and a computer system for efficient code cache management implemented by a just-in-time compiler are provided. Embodiments of the present invention provide a practical approach to compile effectively for methods that are frequently executed over a short time period but are subsequently not executed frequently. The disclosed approach reduces the detrimental effects of compilation of such infrequently executed methods on throughput and garbage collection pause times.
