Full acknowledge.
While in some languages such as C++ performance is
crucial and so manual cleanup is the proper choice here
(and is even much better supported due to the cleanup
of automatic variables), for a language like IDL automatic GC is the
natural thing to provide.
At least with reference counting and copy on write I guess
performance of most programs could be improved.
