Abstract
A method, computer program product, and system for reallocating resources of an idle application or program includes a computer for running an application or a program and starting a predetermined time interval. The computer increases a number counter for each event triggered during the predetermined time interval, and the event is a predetermined trigger that is activated during the running of the application or program. The method and system includes comparing a total number of events that occur during the predetermined time interval to a threshold value. The total number of events is the value of the number counter at the end of the predetermined interval. In response to determining, by the computer, the total number of events being below the threshold value, releasing resources allocated to the program by activating, using the computer, either: i) a garbage collector application, or ii) a resource release application.
