Classes and interfaces are represented by Class objects. When a class or
interface is no longer used, there will be no references to the Class
objects. This signals the garbage collector to collect unused classes
and interfaces.

System.gc () invokes a thread that is defined by the JVM. I's sole
purpose is to perform "garbage collection".
