Search Results for "garbage"

...Increments are values that are mostly useful when compared to a previous one to have an idea of what they're doing because otherwise, they'd never stop increasing: bytes in and out of the node, number of garbage collector runs, words of memory that were garbage collected, and the global reductions count for the node. Total scheduler utilization will equal 1.0 when all schedulers have been active all the time between the two refresh intervals. The result being that there is a decent chunk of CPU usage that would be mostly free for scheduling actual Erlang work (assuming the schedulers are busy waiting more than trying to select tasks to run).

...Due to their lightweight nature, it is not uncommon to have hundreds of thousands of processes running concurrently in the same machine. Isolation allows processes to be garbage collected independently, reducing system-wide pauses, and using all machine resources as efficiently as possible (vertical scaling). Processes are also able to communicate with other processes running on different machines in the same network.
