As I discussed in my last coder from the hard task. In this session the Automatic variables (and function parameters) are usually stored on the stack. One of the duty of a GC system is to automate this process by tracking down (using various algorithms) such objects and reclaim the memory used by them automatically. Garbage collection in Java is the processes of freeing the dynamic memory used by objects that are no longer being used by an application. The Duetto One of the primary benefits of emscripten's model is that it eliminates garbage collection pauses by using the fixed-size heap and performing no other allocations. The compiler will split the code automatically in the client part (compiled to JavaScript) and server part (compiled to native code). This defragmentation may occur when a memory allocation fails or there may be a periodic garbage collection process that is run. GC basically attempts to take care of two basic scenarios remove garbage and avoid dangling pointers. Garbage Collection does exactly what it's more fancier name “Automatic dynamic memory management” suggests. Dynamic memory allocation tends to be nondeterministic; the time taken to allocate memory may not be predictable and the memory pool may become fragmented, resulting in unexpected allocation failures. The stack is normally located . How does Dynamic memory management is slow also when programming native code and should be avoided when performance is the critical factor.
