GCLargeObjectHeapCompactionMode Enumeration

.NET Framework 4.5

[This topic is preliminary and is subject to change.]

Indicates whether the next blocking garbage collection compacts the large object heap (LOH).

Namespace: System.Runtime
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

[SerializableAttribute]
public enum GCLargeObjectHeapCompactionMode

Members

	Member name	Description
	CompactOnce	The large object heap (LOH) will be compacted during the next blocking garbage collection.
	Default	Blocking garbage collections do not compact the large object heap (LOH).

Remarks

The value of the GCSettings.LargeObjectHeapCompactionMode property is a member of the GCLargeObjectHeapCompactionMode enumeration that indicates whether the next full blocking garbage collection also compacts the large object heap (LOH). By default, the LOH is not compacted. A value of CompactOnce indicates that the blocking garbage collection will compact the LOH. After the garbage collection, the value of the GCSettings.LargeObjectHeapCompactionMode property reverts to Default.
