C# (Sharp) Programming Language Question:
When should you call the garbage collector in .NET?
Answer:
As a good rule, you should not call the garbage collector. However, you could call the garbage collector when you are done using a large object (or set of objects) to force the garbage collector to dispose of those very large objects from memory. However, this is usually not a good practice.
