I think we've solved the GC vs Manual debate. Just add more RAM and explode your computer when it's done running

Very 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.

Many 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.

Really, this is just region-based memory management or actor-based memory management.

[mottosso]

It's actually rocket-based memory management. Ba dum tss!
