Enable voluntary periodic mark-and-sweep collection.
|
|
|
|
When disabled, a mark-and-sweep collection is still triggered in an
|
|
out-of-memory condition (known as "emergency GC". When disabling this
|
|
option it's recommended to use reference counting which collects all
|
|
non-cyclical garbage. Application code should also request an explicit
|
|
garbage collection from time to time when appropriate. When this option
|
|
is disabled, Duktape will have no garbage collection pauses in ordinary
|
|
use, which is useful for timing sensitive applications like games.
