I totally disagree:) Show me example of such bad decision.
Tango often asks you a buffer (e.g. at tango.text.Unicode,
tango.text.convert.Utf) that is not needed in a language with GC. But it
isn't a main problem. Let's consider the cases:
* if you don't provide a buffer it will manually allocate an array
instead of using an Appender and than reallocate it etc.
* the worst case, if you provide a large enough buffer, you are (I was)
completely sure Tango will use it (you whant to do a manual memory
management by some reason), *but* it will reallocate a new one from GC
if it just don't like yours (if yourBuffer.length - minimalNeededLength
< tangoSacredAdditionLength, and addition length it often nonzero, so
Tango will not like your exactly enough buffer).
