A case in point is this question, where Boehm gc is called a "proper" gc, ignoring the fact that it's slow and practically guaranteed to leak. I found this question while researching whether someone implemented python-style cycle breaker for shared_ptr, which sounds like a worthwhile goal for a c++ implementation. | |
