gollark: It's the same amount of computer. They have to do more work to replace heavy things with light things.

[C++] is, by definition, better than C,[1] but most people are too feeble-minded to learn it, and usually die of an aneurism when they begin to learn how to use templates.[citation needed] Given the complexity of the language, only the best programmers can actually use it, and because of the necessary skills, the programs are always smaller, faster, and better than programs written in other languages.
gollark: Surely you could just have your code scan the entire contents of memory via ctypes every minute or so?
