First of all, thank you very much for your reply. As it has turned out, I was not too precise in my earlier question - after some testing I have found that after some intense page reloading, full GC gets triggered. The thread running uses 100% of one core,while all the other threads (presumably), have to wait for it to finish. Is there any way to make full GC run in multiple threads? Kind regards, Jurijhome | help
