| Description | AMC does not implement weakness in emergency fixing. This is really a special case of job001666, "No guarantee that all weak references to an object die together", but the problem can also manifest as weak references not being splatted when they reasonably could have been. The problem is that in emergency fixing mode AMC will not splat weak references even when it would be correct to do so. Ironically this may result in more memory being used than is necessary. |
| Analysis | AMCFixEmergency needs to pay more attention to weakness. |
| How found | inspection |
