I am assuming no such thing, that's why I suggested pointers and such should be left out. I'm not actually literally suggesting that we put C in a browser, I'm using it as a design metaphor. You can do fast and low level without C style pointers (for example, fortran* .. not that I'm advocating fortran either ) Sidenote: GC wouldn't prevent anyone from stealing a lot of resources. Either way you can ask for a lot of resources and not give them back. * Yes I know fortran has a thing called a pointer, but it's a lot different.
