Answer
ZGC uses concurrent threads for most GC work.
ZGC is designed for low-latency applications by performing most garbage collection work concurrently with application threads, minimizing Stop-The-World pauses. This is beneficial for applications handling massive data loads, such as processing transactions in real-time for an e-commerce platform during Black Friday.
