What you're describing isn't really 'garbage collection'.
It's virtual memory management.
Application code and data is subject to being paged out
to virtual memory whenever physical memory is needed
for other things.
However, that should not happen because you walked
away from your computer and left it idle with no memory
consuming operations running.
It will happen if you are working on a large drawing, or
doing anything else that involves memory consumption,
and there is little that you can do about that other than
to get more RAM.

Is there a way to keep my programs in memory, alive and waiting for my keystroke?
I know there is a heavy startup cost for .NET when I netload and launch my programs. My problem is that if I walk away from my desk for 20 minutes or so or don’t use one of my programs for a while they get garbage collected and I have to wait until they are re jit’ed back into memory. Ram is cheap time is expensive
