Why do programs/games take long to load, but instantly close

253 views

When i boot up a game, it takes a hwhile to actually load up, and for me to start playing, how is it then, that when i save, and then click “quit to desktop” or even just close the game from taskmanager, the game closes instantly.

Starting a game is much more complicated than closing it. The program is there in the midia (be a disk or solid-state-device) and it must be translated into some form of raw binary format the machine can work with, and allocate memory for the immediate tasks.

And to close a game is simply a matter of saying “I’m closing, I don’t need this memory anymore, you can use for something else. Bye!”
