Subject: garbage collection


I haven't a copy of the code yet but a friend of mine was bemoaning his
efforts to create an application in ruby (conversion from python) and
ran into a problem.

He discards a LOT of objects during the final steps of his application
run.  This part of the process ultimately results in a crash every time
he runs it.

Is there something that can be recommended to help with garbage
collection?
