Why Generational Shenandoah GC in JDK 25 Is a Game‑Changer for Java Performance

JDK 25 introduces the generational Shenandoah garbage collector as a production‑ready feature, offering lower pause times, higher throughput, and better memory efficiency compared to G1 and ZGC, while remaining optional via the -XX:ShenandoahGCMode=generational flag and preserving compatibility with existing scripts.
