Memory & Resource Management
Problems with memory allocation, leaks, and system resource utilization
[1 examples] Zombie processFinished processes incorrectly show as active, causing resource leaks. resource managementosdebugging |
[5 examples] Orphaned processProcess continues running after parent process ends, consuming resources. resource managementosstate |

[1 examples] Memory fragmentationFree memory becomes fragmented, reducing efficiency. memoryperformance |
[243 examples] Memory leakUnused memory accumulates without proper release. memoryresource managementc++ |
