In pure functional programming, every modification requires creating new data, leading to frequent memory allocation and garbage collection (GC), whereas C allows manual memory management and in-place modification for higher efficiency.

VerifiedCalling gc.collect() once after processing each asset can actively reclaim circular references and avoid memory buildup; on a 2GB machine, actively reclaiming once per processed item can turn the memory curve from a sawtooth buildup into a flat staircase75% similarUnverifiedDue to its manual memory management characteristics, C is inherently prone to memory safety issues such as buffer overflows, use-after-free, double-free, and integer overflows.74% similarUnverifiedFrequent or large memory allocations trigger garbage collection (GC), and in lightweight environments this overhead is amplified manifold.73% similarUnverifiedCalling gc.collect() after processing each asset forces Python's garbage collection to trigger, promptly freeing objects no longer in use and effectively lowering peak memory.72% similarUnverifiedThe trade-off of pure C is lower development efficiency and manual memory management71% similar
