Nice article, especially this paragraph:
In case you are writing a performance critical piece of
software, remember you
can turn off the garbage collector! People on forums like to
bash that in such
case you cannot use many functions from standard library. So
what? If
performances are essential for your system you are likely
already writing you own
utility library with highly optimized algorithms and data
structures for your use
case, so you won’t really miss the standard library much.
Good luck to the boys and girls in the HN comments as the
dumpster fire is already raging.
