I'm a bit confused by this. In non-GC, data would not be released during the loop execution. Let's assume that it was autoreleased during the 'get it from somewhere'. It would only be actually released when execution returns to the main run loop; clearly after the entire loop above would be executed.
In GC, all collection goes on in a separate thread, which is why data can be released during a loop.
