Is garbage collector a daemon (background) thread?
Thanks.

Java Garbage Collector runs as a Daemon Thread (i.e. a low priority thread that runs in the background to provide services to user threads or perform JVM tasks).
Daemon thread in Java is a low-priority thread that runs in the background to perform tasks such as garbage collection.
4) Garbage Collection in Java is carried by a daemon thread called Garbage Collector. 5) Before removing an object from memory garbage collection thread invokes finalize() method of that object and gives an opportunity to perform any sort of cleanup required.
In the common language runtime (CLR), the garbage collector (GC) serves as an automatic memory manager. The garbage collector manages the allocation and release of memory for an application. Therefore, developers working with managed code don't have to write code to perform memory management tasks.
I will assume yes, Garbage collector thread is a daemon thread. Daemon thread is a low priority thread which runs intermittently in the back ground doing the garbage collection operation or other requests for the java runtime system.
