Basically, my question is in terms of performance and the garbage collector -
Is there any difference between
a) letting a variable simply go out of scope
b) explicity setting it to null once I am done with it
I have no particular reason to think that b) would gain me anything, but I thought maybe it would be a sure sign to the garbage
collector that Yes, you can go ahead and remove the object.
Thanks!
