Memory Safety Without Garbage Collection

June 8, 2025 • Technical Deep Dive

Our novel ownership model prevents memory leaks without runtime overhead. Achieving both safety and performance in WebAssembly execution.

Introduction

εβ²μα is excited to present our breakthrough in memory safety for WebAssembly. Today marks the first public release of our Ownership-Based Memory Management system. This innovative approach eliminates all memory leaks while maintaining full control over memory allocation and release, without the performance costs of garbage collection systems.

Key metrics: 99.9% memory leak free rate, 85% reduction in GC latency, and 40% lower memory footprint

The Ownership Model

1. Stack-Oriented Memory Allocation

Our system is based on strict ownership rules implemented through:

  • Static-Frame Tracking for automatic release
  • Static Analysis of Memory Usage Patterns
  • Compile-time Validation of Memory Lifecycle

2. Performance Characteristics

300B+

Allocations/sec

0

GC Pauses

440ms

Cold Start Time

3. Optimization in Practice

Below is sample code showing our ownership-based allocation:

The Future of Memory Management

This approach redefines how safe memory management can be in WebAssembly environments. With zero runtime GC penalties and strict compile-time verification, we've shown it's possible to have both performance and safety at scale.
