Rust doesn’t have a slow garbage collector. Instead, it uses a mechanism called the borrow checker that ensures memory safety at compile time. This strict set of rules ensures that you can’t “forget” to free up memory—code simply won’t compile if the memory rules are breached. This is what makes Rust a memory-safe language. However, ..
