When using Serial, Parallel or G1 GCs I can directly see their Collection Counts and accumulated times. However when using ZGC and ShenandoahGC it shows two different Counts and Times for each - for Pause and for Cycles.

Which one of these is the right one for comparing the GC between each other?

What exactly are you trying to compare? Note that Java GC algorithms are very complex with lots of nuances. They may not provide comparable metrics in this way. – aled May 20 '23 at 12:55
I would like to compare the times each GC is active and how often it gets revoked – TKret96 May 20 '23 at 13:31

Do you mean *invoked*? – Stephen C May 20 '23 at 14:24
Yes of course! My fault – TKret96 May 20 '23 at 21:41
