You can get at least something via JMX: (require '[clojure.contrib.jmx :as jmx]) (map #(subs (str %) 37) (jmx/mbean-names "java.lang:type=GarbageCollector,*")) Default on my PC: ("PS MarkSweep" "PS Scavenge") With -XX:-UseParallelGC: ("Copy" "MarkSweepCompact") With -XX:+UseG1GC: ("G1 Old Generation" "G1 Young Generation") You can also see this same data by running JConsole (shipped in the JDK's bin directory) and attaching to a running Java process. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
