Also it's interesting waht is the correspondence between memory management, memory model and allocators? I know that std.allocator is in development. I guess that it should be considered in complex.
1. Memory management: when are calls to allocation and deallocation primitives made?
2. Allocators: what are the allocation and deallocation primitives, and how are they implemented?
3. Memory model: how is memory effected by programs? (of interest for compiler implementers and thread safety)
There is occasional confusion among the three. I myself was in the woods for a while thinking that allocators should do memory management.
