Dear list,<br><br>I'd like to know some inner insights on how memory is handled in Erlang.<br><br>Let's say that I build up a Binary term() in a gen_server, which I store in its state, and then send it over to another gen_server which will also store this term into its state.<br>
<br>My question is: will this Binary term occupy 2 * memory space or is there some kind of pointer mechanism to handle it?<br><br>Thank you,<br><br>r.<br>
