Re: I have a plan.. I really DO

As I've already repeated twice, this is not true in D. You *can* predict precisely when the GC runs a collection cycle by calling GC.disable and then calling GC.collect according to *your* own schedule. This is not just a theoretical thing. I have actually done this in my own projects, and it does work.

Sorry, can you help me with this?

Eg.
void doit()
{
    int[] x;
    x.length = 1024 * 1024 * 128;
}

void main()
{
    import core.memory : GC;
    import core.thread;
    GC.disable;

    doit; //alloc +- 500mb inside the func.
    Thread.sleep(5.seconds); //500mb still in use.
    GC.collect; //hmmm still there
    Thread.sleep(5.seconds); //same
}
