Re:Hunting down a C memory leak in a Go program by WalterBright on Saturday October 16, 2021 @04:03AM (#28886302)
It would also stomp on all memory returned by malloc, and all memory that free free'd. This uncovered amazing numbers of bugs.

Over time, though, it got less and less effective, as I got better and better at avoiding writing such bugs in the first place.

Most bugs I create these days are due to misunderstanding the problem I'm solving, rather than memory misuse.
