General Problems for GC'ed Applications?

[Unknown W. Brackets]

Oops.... I meant, of course:

As for the risks... (a) I see as the OS's problem, where #1 is an issue; 
(b) I see as a problem regardless of garbage collection; (c) I agree 
with, as I mentioned above, and these should be balanced - only when it 
is not of more use to track down the memory should it be left to the GC.

That's what I get for typing such a response at that time of night :/. 
"a", "#2", "c"... man...
