Morphology

recycler = recycle (transparent) = recycle + er

The technical/software sense is an extension of the verb 'recycle' and the agentive/nominal '-er' yields 'component that recycles', which is straightforward.

Etymology

Recycler in computing comes from the same parts, re- 'again' and cycle 'circle' or 'repeat', so a software recycler reuses objects, memory, or other resources in a repeating cycle. That is why a computing recycler helps the program run faster and use less memory by not making new items all the time.
