    ... about a little thing called GC (aka Garbage Collector). (I always thought a computer/framework/programming-language is a deterministic thingy :D ) Have a nice day everybody :) Phil

    I won’t not use no double negatives.

      That's the thing with computers - you can't think something about them and expect to keep on thinking that forever. They keep changing - faster than a baby grows.

            Hehe ;) I do. But I had the joy of observing a windows service of mine through WinDbg and found it amusing how the GC is working ;) But you make me curious, what is "THE ONE" project? Phil

                The way it continuously allocates more memory when enough free memory is available, for suddenly releasing it nearly completely and so on. And all this without obvious (at least at first sight) reason... I found that amusing because it gave me somehow the impression that the GC has some kind of emotional reaction when it comes to memory. :D Yet, I'm glad it actually exists ;) Phil
