 The output of this example shows that a young generation collection occurred between the third and fourth sample\&. The collection took 0\&.078 seconds and promoted objects from the eden space (E) to the old space (O), resulting in an increase of old space utilization from 66\&.80% to 68\&.19%\&.

+\fB\-gcnew\fR
+option\&. In addition, it uses the
+\fB\-h3\fR
+option to output the column header after every 3 lines of data\&.
+.PP
 In addition to showing the repeating header string, this example shows that between the second and third samples, a young GC occurred\&. Its duration was 0\&.001 seconds\&. The collection found enough active data that the survivor space 0 utilization (S0U) would have exceeded the desired survivor Size (DSS)\&. As a result, objects were promoted to the old generation (not visible in this output), and the tenuring threshold (TT) was lowered from 31 to 2\&.
 .PP
 Another collection occurs between the fifth and sixth samples\&. This collection found very few survivors and returned the tenuring threshold to 31\&.
