CompTIA A+ 220-1102 (V14) Practice Question

During a maintenance review, a technician finds that an automation script allocates large data structures but never explicitly frees the memory after each run. If this script continues to run on a schedule without modification, which of the following problems is MOST likely to occur?

  • Overall CPU utilization will permanently drop, leading to slower processing but no stability issues.

  • Disk fragmentation will rapidly increase because unreleased memory blocks are written to disk.

  • The system's available memory will steadily decrease, eventually degrading performance or causing crashes.

  • The script file will be automatically quarantined by antivirus software due to excessive memory use.
