Understanding Allocations: the Stack and the Heap - GopherCon SG 2019

Published on: Monday, 20 May 2019

Speaker: Jacob Walker, Ardan Labs (@jcbwlkr)

Like C, Go uses both stack and heap memory. How can a Gopher know which is being used? Can you influence this decision? What effect does it have on your program? Are there any tools to help? This talk answers those questions and more.
