> iOS software uses reference counting for memory management, running on silicon optimized to make reference counting as efficient as possible; Android software uses garbage collection for memory management, a technique that requires more RAM to achieve equivalent performance.
Oh no crap Sherlock! Let me save this quote whenever someone wants to tell me all about how GC is much superior than reference counting.
Yes tell me how a stop-scan-mark-sweep periodic process is more efficient than just keeping track of what you do.
