Does that also apply to Mono? If so, are Microsoft's .Net and Mono equals as far as low memory consumption, or does one of them have an edge?
- fauigerzigerk 16y agoIt does apply to Mono as well. I haven't done a detailed comparison, just some ad hoc tests. The reason why memory consumption is so much lower is not an implementation detail. It's because .NET knows structured value types (struct in C#) and hence uses way way fewer pointers than all JVM based languages.
