Interview of Jesús Espino
summary
Compares concrete memory designs across C++, Rust, Python, Go, and Java and gives actionable differences: Java offers pluggable, generational and low-pause collectors to trade throughput vs latency; Go uses a mark-and-sweep garbage collector without generations; C++ and Rust avoid GC—Rust enforces an ownership model so the compiler frees memory with zero runtime, enabling simple, robust FFI; recommends focusing on ownership semantics when moving from GC languages to Rust.
