The Memory Leak Solution You Wish You Knew Sooner

Memory leaks are often ignored. Either forever, slowing down the application and forcing bad habits and eternal infrastructure issues, or, making it exponentially harder to solve down the road. In this video I'll go through how I found my own memory leak, what are possible root causes, how to identify, lock down the cause, analyze and eventually eliminate the issue.

This technique is generally called Object/Resource Pooling.
It's a common memory performance optimization technique and can be applied to any large object that gets frequently allocated.

Thanks!

[@annusingh4694]

Very useful video, also those are great animated transitions in the video 💯

[@arthuralvespsy]

That’s an amazing video, one thing that software must to know that the reflect of resource usage issues usually will be in reason of bad coders. Please in the future if does it possible bring more content regarding performance troubleshooting as well as metrics

[@devopstoolbox]

Thanks!! I’ll do my best! These tend to be more popular as courses / workshops rather than videos based on what I see 🤷

[@arthuralvespsy]

@@devopstoolbox if you create the course for sure I will buy lol

Where did you get the graphics for the thumbnail? I really ike it!

[@devopstoolbox]

Thanks! This is midjourney 😉

[@jenwans3055]

Your thumbnails are so cool

[@morpheus3140]

Can't we fix this without coding?

[@devopstoolbox]

You mean fix a mem leak without changing the code?

[@lintaoamons5712]

I love coding go with neovim!
