Sure garbage collection is not for every project, depends what
industry you are in I guess... In my case (business
applications/services) I have never had the need to turn off
garbage collection!
However, someone in the gaming industry, embedded or realtime
systems would indeed need to turn off the GC...
Who said anything about turning it off? I'm pointing out that
using the GC for the sake of simplicity is precisely the wrong
reason to do so, that's it. Bunch of nonsense, right. Have fun
writing sloppy code then.
