The easiest way of making things easier for the GC is to let it do it’s job without interfering. It optimizes when it needs to run on it’s own.
I would look into when to use a the Finalizer in C#. That is one area where you can potentially help the GC out.
Understanding the Large Object Heap may be of some benefit as well as this can potentially cause problems.
