Not my experience at all. I work on very large C++ code bases and haven’t had a bug in production for more than 5 years. The trick is solid tests and using tools like Valgrind/Helgrind to remove all memory issues.

It also depends on what kind of application you're developing and the resource usage patterns.

Not at all. Tests + Valgrind/Helgrind (and similar tools) can cope with pretty much anything.
