Heard a story about a developer auditing the code for missiles. He quickly pointed out that there was memory leaks everywhere … turns out that it was intentional, as the missile had its own garbage collection at the end of flight.

Any OOM issues was handled by doubling the expected memory usage during the missiles flight.
