Garbage Collection advantages

Name: Anonymous 2015-03-08 16:49

1.Inserts random pauses into the program, reducing CPU overheating.
2.Allows elegant allocation of resources.
3.Frees the programmer from the heavy burden of manually freeing memory.
4.Stimulates production of larger memory modules and lowers memory prices.
5.Redirects programmer resources from childish low-latency games towards serious scientific programs.
6.Allows to diagnose memory leaks and allocation problems, effects of which become obvious fast.
7.The programmer isn't forced to sacrifice everything for memory performance, as he can blame the garbage collector.
8.Garbage collection is often faster to use than manual allocation with some minor space costs and a few pauses.
9.Manual memory allocation is too error-prone.
10.Most programmers don;t know how much memory they use, GC will helpfully show how much.

11. May be easily profiled hand-tuned for a particular workload.
12. Implementation of GC can change without any programmer needing to change his code: free performance improvements for everyone.
13. Available GC solutions have been improved by professionals, whereas manual memory management means inventing a hand-rolled, very imperfect ad hoc version of GC every time.

Why garbage collect shit? Shit shouldn't be collected along with other garbage. Sometimes you need to shit collect shit.

those aren't idle pauses, those are active GC pauses
GC is shit
