It seems to me that a generational collector would have problems collecting Clojure's garbage production pattern. Luckily, the oracle/ hotspot jvm has a continuous collecting compacting GC called G1. That should mitigate oldspace collection latency spikes. Enable with -XX: +UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseG1GC
