Untangling Lifetimes: The Arena Allocator
The text discusses the arena allocator as an alternative to traditional manual memory management in C, addressing issues with malloc and free. The arena allocator simplifies memory allocation and deallocation by grouping lifetimes together in a single block of memory. It provides a more efficient and manageable way to handle memory usage in codebases compared to the malloc and free approach.
