Poking around in the source code for emplace and I noticed...

T* emplace(T, Args...)(T* chunk, auto ref Args args)

what does the "auto ref" do in this situiation? Cant seem to find any explanation in the docs.

It means that any argument (that is an element of args) will be passed by reference if and only if it's an lvalue (has a memory address that can be taken) (it'll be passed by value otherwise).
