In general, accusing garbage collection of being culprit for sluggish GUI performance is plain wrong. Swing GUIs can be quite snappy when done right - but surely there are lots of not-so-right done apps out there.
Also, the amount of GC required depends a lot on what you're doing, and how. Typical menus, buttons and texts are quite light. But if you're streaming a full-screen video and not re-using any buffers, then there's definitely massive GC going on. VisualVM (https://visualvm.dev.java.net/) is a convenient tool to check what's going on in a particular application, performance-wise. Best Regards, Joonas
