HashSet<T>.TrimExcess Method
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
Sets the capacity of a HashSet<T> object to the actual number of elements it contains, rounded up to a nearby, implementation-specific value.
Namespace: System.Collections.Generic
Assembly: System.Core (in System.Core.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Sub TrimExcess
public void TrimExcess()
Remarks
You can use the TrimExcess method to minimize a HashSet<T> object's memory overhead once it is known that no new elements will be added. To completely clear a HashSet<T> object and release all memory referenced by it, call this method after calling the Clear method.
This method is an O(n) operation, where n is Count.
