    However, using the same values is typically not a good idea, because it delays the start of garbage collection until the heap is full. Therefore, the first time that the GC runs, the process can take longer. Also, the heap is more likely to be fragmented and require a heap compaction. You are advised to start your application with the minimum heap size that your application requires. When the GC starts up, it will run frequently and efficiently, because the heap is small.
