The major issue with the garbage collector is that it's not guaranteed 
to run a collection. When a collection is run the GC will call the 
destructors for the objects it collects. If there's no guarantee a 
collection is run there can be no guarantee that destructors are called. 
A collection is usually run when allocating new memory and there's not 
enough memory available.
