+        // The Concurrent Mark Sweep (CMS) garbage collector was a low-pause GC
+        // designed for applications requiring shorter stop-the-world times.
+        // It performed part of its mark-and-sweep phases concurrently with
+        // running application threads.
+        //
+        // However, CMS had several drawbacks:
+        // - High maintenance cost and complex code base in HotSpot.
+        // - Fragmentation issues due to the non-compacting nature of CMS.
+        // - Poor scalability and unpredictable long pauses on large heaps.
+        //
+        // Because modern GCs like G1 (JEP 248), ZGC (JEP 333), and Shenandoah
+        // offer better latency and throughput characteristics,
+        // CMS was first deprecated in JDK 9 (JEP 291) and completely removed
+        // in JDK 14 under JEP 363.
+        //
+        // As of JDK 14 and later, the JVM ignores the option
+        // "-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC" and prints a warning message instead:
+        // "Ignoring option UseConcMarkSweepGC; support was removed in 14.0"
+        //
+        // e.g. (jdk 11) `java -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -version`
+        // result:
+        //      OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.
+        //      openjdk version "11.0.28" 2025-07-15 LTS
+        //      OpenJDK Runtime Environment Microsoft-11913448 (build 11.0.28+6-LTS)
+        //      OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Microsoft-11913448 (build 11.0.28+6-LTS, mixed mode, sharing)
+        //
+        // e.g. (jdk 17, 25) `java -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -version`
+        // result:
+        //      Unrecognized VM option 'UseConcMarkSweepGC'
+        //      Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
+        //      Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit
+        //
+        // Developers migrating from older Java versions should replace CMS
+        // with modern collectors such as:
+        //   - G1GC (default since JDK 9)
+        //   - ZGC for ultra-low latency workloads
+        //   - Shenandoah for concurrent compaction
+        //
+        // No source-level code changes are required — only JVM options and
+        // performance tuning scripts need to be updated when upgrading.
