On Linux, the Go runtime now releases memory back to the operating
|
||||
system only when the OS is under memory pressure. This is more
|
||||
efficient, but means a process's RSS (resident set size) won't
|
||||
decrease unless the OS is running out of memory.

On Linux, the runtime now uses MADV_FREE to release unused
|
||||
memory. This is more efficient but may result in higher reported
|
||||
RSS. The kernel will reclaim the unused data when it is needed.
