In just about every language I seen people use .clone rather than deal with problems so I suspect a lot of cases a GC can be just fine or faster. Although I'm comfortable with memory management and rather use C or C++ if I'm writing fast code
Like in case where you can't use Rust? (ie.: existing codebase). Sure that is what Fil-C is good for. Point is that Fil-C does not solve the problem Rust does. It is more like band-aid. (Maybe my comment was misunderstood because of typo: sell/well)
Also I think there is huge difference between GC and fact that some people use .clone() somewhere.
Your reply is so ridiculous. I don't think I ever seen a single rust codebase that didn't use unsafe in it or any of it dependencies. People use a lot of clone, it's not just "some" people. Even if we ignore all the webdev writing rust
Not just compiler but GC as sell. So it does note solve same problem as Rust.
