Static Method shld be minimised in Java Programm.For Ex . if i am m accessing any method and request modified the object then when other request comes it wll met to modfied Object.So we shld minimise the Static method in Java program as Original (Initial) value may be lost.

Static variables and classes
In Java usually a class member (variable or method) is accessed in conjunction with an object of its class. In the case of static variables and methods it is possible to use a class member without creating an instance of its class. A class with static members is known as a static class. In such cases before a class instance is created an object of its class will also be created by the JVM. The class object is allocated to the heap itself. The primordial class loader will load the class object. In the case of static classes all the static members will also be instantiated along with the class object. Once the variable is initialized with data (typically an object) the variable remains in memory as long as the class that defines it stays in memory. If the primordial class loader loads class instances they will stay in memory for the duration of the program and are not eligible for garbage collection. So static classes and associated static variables will never be garbage collected. Thus using too many static variables leads to memory leaks.
