Yeah, I won't argue that there aren't some domains where you have soft real-time requirements, and need the language to allow you to do things like that. Reddit's app server isn't that, though. Separately, my gut feeling is that in 2024, programming language runtime technology is advanced enough that manually reusing buffers isn't necessarily a good use of hours-spent-optimizing. To pick on Python in particular, it _does_ actually reuse buffers when they only have a single owner; more languages might get this in the future via the Perceus refcounting work? |
