How often is the GC executed?

Java: How often is the GC executed in JVM? Every second? Every minute? Or is it random depending on the memory size? I just want to have an idea.

Thank you.

It depends on the memory usage and the heap in which the objects are stored. Look at this

It does not depend on time. It only depends on the new memory requirements and available memory.
