I will note that in GC literature at least, that is still considered a leak. In an ideal world, we could have a GC that reclaimed all unused memory, but that turns out to be impossible because of the halting problem. So, we settle for GCs that reclaim only unreachable memory, which is a strict subset of unused memory. Unused reachable memory is a leak. |
