Function shredder::collect

pub fn collect()

A function for manually running a collection, ignoring the heuristic that governs normal garbage collector operations.

This can be an extremely slow operation, since the algorithm is designed to be run in the background, while this method runs it on the thread that calls the method. Additionally, you may end up blocking waiting to collect, since shredder doesn’t allow two collections at once (and if this happens, you’ll effectively get two collections in a row).

Example

use shredder::collect;
collect(); // Manually run GC
