Workstation GC for 1 logical CPU

[glb-cblin]

Type of issue

Outdated article

Description

I'm using .NET8 in GCP Cloud run environment configured with 1 CPU and 512Mo RAM (in order to scale horizontally as needed) and with the CPU throtled when there is no incoming HTTP request

I'm having memory issues that I describe here : https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-dotnet/issues/11404

My intuition is that the GC behavior have changed in .NET8 to be Server GC instead of workstattion GC

And so this sentence seems outdated :

Workstation garbage collection is always used on a computer that has only one logical CPU, regardless of the configuration setting.

You can see in the linked github issue that with .NET8, the GC is waiting the threshold of 75% to be triggered whereas with .NET6 it was clearing memory more often
