界: API Abuse

API 是调用方和被调用方之间的约定。最常见的 API 滥用是由于调用方未能遵守此约定的终止导致的。例如,如果某个程序在调用 chroot() 后未能调用 chdir(),则违反了用于指定如何安全地更改活动根目录的约定。库滥用的另一个典型示例是期望被调用方向调用方返回可信的 DNS 信息。在这种情况下,调用方通过对被调用方行为做出某种假设(返回值可用于身份验证目的)滥用其 API。另一方也可能违反调用方-被调用方约定。例如,如果编码器子类化 SecureRandom 并返回一个非随机值,则将违反此约定。

Code Correctness: Call to System.gc()

Abstract
显式的调用垃圾回收机制可以预示系统性能可能出现的问题。
Explanation
几乎所有的 Java 开发人员都会在工作中碰到这样的情况,有时候某个问题看上去非常神秘,让人难以理解,而且根本调试不出来,好像一点办法都没有,只能将原因归结为垃圾回收机制的问题。特别是当问题与 time and state 相关时,我们可以根据经验进行推断,并找到支持这一理论的根据:插入对 System.gc() 的调用似乎可以使问题迎刃而解。

在我们遇到的绝大多数情况中,调用 System.gc() 并非什么好方法。事实上,过于频繁地调用 System.gc() 会带来性能问题。
