I do not. But the fact that it doesn't necessarily change what the program does, says it's not 100% vital.

So you're essentially saying that as long as the program works, there is no need to be "proper" or implement optimizations?

No. Does it have an effect on this program though? That's also no.

You just said that you have no clue about what it does in relation to the GC, and for that fact, who are you to say whether it affects the program or not?

It actually does, and perhaps affects the speed of the hash cracking as well. Again, you have no clue though, you're just assuming things here. The GC "sweep" is a very computationally expensive task. That's why I am pointing this out. Look it up on your own...
