- crazypython 5y agoReally, this is just region-based memory management or actor-based memory management.
- mottosso 5y agoIt's actually rocket-based memory management. Ba dum tss!
- rm445 5y agoVery funny. But leak memory until you have to restart the process seems to be a very common strategy in practice. The programs explode even if the computer doesn't.
- TchoBeer 5y agoMany moons ago I remember talking with someone who works in HFT software and they said they'd just load the system with tons of RAM because allocation/deallocation and even manual memory management was too slow.
