Method and apparatus are disclosed for the intensive use of garbage collection in order to determine the exact amount of memory that is consumed by a running application at any point of its execution. A garbage collector executes immediately prior to allocations of memory during execution of a program. The amount of memory used by the application is known after each such allocation of memory, and is very close to or equal to its theoretical requirement. A developer is also enabled to determine whether a specified memory allotment for an application is ever exceeded. |
