# The Lord of the Memory: The Return of the Leak


- **Event:** World Congress 2026 Europe - Virtual Stage

## Description

One Memory for the CPU on its dark throne
In the PC case where wires lie.
One Memory to leak everywhere, One Memory forgotten to be freed,
One Memory to calculate them all and in the darkness crash
In the PC case where wires lie

In this talk the paths of memory will be briefly described. Its operations, bits and bytes, its connections to language and especially browser and JavaScript. The red line of the report will be about memory leaks, why they occur, how to detect them and recognize, tools for detecting in connection with JavaScript and Vue.js. Also, the practical use case will be touched.
