Not if you never get your application into production...

$Insert \*tips head\* GIF here.$

I wish this was as much of a joke as I'm pretending. It's so common for software projects to get cancelled that lots of tooling differences are just in terms of how long they let you not deal with long-term problems and how violently they do then explode into your face.

For most of the development lifecycle of a GCed project, you're gonna ignore memory usage. And if you're lucky, it can be 'solved' by just plonking down a thiccer piece of hardware...

Great points. Especially putting in more memory can get you very far.

Database optimization? Nah, just put in 1 TB of RAM to keep the whole DB in memory at all times.
