I haven't made up my mind yet about whether or not I find Rust's memory management ideas convoluted. But the Rust people seem to be the only ones working on this important problem at all and contributing some innovative ideas. Looking at this long list of programming languages, I see two approaches used by the vast majority of popular implementations: Conventional tracing garbage collectors that cause pauses up to minutes, and naive reference counting which is slow, concurrency hostile and error prone. Obviously, don't know every implementation of every language on the list. So please tell me I'm wrong. I would love to be!
