Java & # 8594; System.gc (); Does this call open a new topic or not?

Question

For example, I have such a code

... get some memory and lose all pointers to that memory to System.gc (); can collect it.

call System.gc ();

perform some other tasks;

---

Here, "perform some other tasks" is performed; and "System.gc ();" works in parallel or performs "other tasks"; waiting for "System.gc ();" for execution
