- Json.free_all (value_free_all): a parsed tree's nodes, lists and strings. render3d frees each
glTF document that way at the next load; the names kept out of it are copies (a primitive's
material, a skin's joints, an animation clip's name in ludic.anim) - a model's strings were
~640 KB left behind per load
- jp_number made a digits list per decimal in a document and never freed it
- gvk_layout_id matches a mesh's layout as numbers in a scratch made once, against the layouts
known end to end; a new mesh no longer builds a key string
- gvk_mem_new puts a new block into the record of one given back rather than appending, so a
buffer made again every few frames no longer grows the block lists
steady.ludic adds a glTF parsed and freed whole 200 times: 0 bytes (38,400 before the digits fix),
beside the buffer path and the frame, still 0. A model loaded and let go still keeps ~2 KB a round
(texture and buffer handles are not reused yet); it is bounded at 8 KB a round.

gvk_mem_new made a one-slot []pointer per allocation, and turned the requirement's size and
alignment into strings to read them as ints; gvk_list_drop_last rebuilt the spare-record list to
drop its last entry; gvk_mem_id did the string round trip on every free. One slot is kept
(gvk_map_slot), int() truncates a long, the spare list pops. Every Text.to_int(string(x)) in
render3d is int(x) now.
Vk.heap_bytes() (vk_mac.ll: malloc_zone_statistics' size_in_use; 0 on Windows) and
examples/rendering/steady.ludic, in the suite: a buffer released and made again 5000 times and
600 whole frames gain 0 bytes each - the allocator before this, 1,120,000 over the 5000.
