ggc

I am interested in looking at some applications involving quite a few
thousand STk objects, which leads me to a question about garbage collection.
I want to use a lot of memory and garbage collect very rarely. I once tried
changing the heap size to be many megabytes, but it didn't seem to
make any difference since gc's seemed just as frequent. I really haven't
had time to determine exactly how the gc mechanism is called. Would
somebody who knows it better please explain how to tailor it to my needs?
        thanks,
