Yes you can click on this and manually force the garbage collection, but overall your JVM should take care of garbage collection on its own. There is no need to do this manually. If there is problem with OOM errors or system hangs you need to verify you memory and garbage collection settings. Maybe changing the GC to a different one (like G1) would help. You can read more here about tunning you GC settings.
