Did Go ever fix that problem where short term high memory usage can cause large empty heaps because of the lack of compaction?
I remember a rash of articles about this phenomena a while back. This article seems to think its not an issue so I'm wondering when it was fixed.
- jatone 5y agothat was never an issue? maybe your thinking of the slowness golang had in returning memory to the OS? that was resolved.
- Jweb_Guru 5y agoNo, it was never fixed and probably never will be, because it would make Go perform worse in the latency-sensitive microbenchmarks it wants to do well in.
