It kind of is unrelated...
But do you know about the functionality of package "java.lang.ref"? The

i think the question is, how do you program real-time applications
in java? you'd need to switch off the garbage collector entirely
when the real-time thread runs, and only activate it when the system
has cycles to spare. how do you do that?
