Each morning's repopulation made a new WildAnimal (and the game a new drawing, actor and skeleton,
keyed by an ever-rising key) for every animal that had gone. A legend's record is never taken, nor
one still in a crowd. reuse_test: a hundred removes and makes are one record.

emit_escape.ludic: every value is in a class, joined by flow edges (a let, an assignment, an argument
into its parameter, a result into the call) and store edges (a field, an element, a push). HEAP (a
parameter, a state, a global, what an unknown call hands back) flows forward; ESC (stored into
something HEAP, into a global, into an event's fields or named values, handed to an unknown callee)
flows backward, and from an ESC or HEAP target along a store. A load is its base's class. A site that
is neither ESC nor in a function reaching Mem.frame is LOCAL (Node.uns = ES_SCRATCH). ludicc
--escape-report prints each site and the totals; nothing is emitted differently yet - the arena that
allocates the LOCAL sites is next.
@alloc_ok on a generic now covers its instances (kept_push$NetFact is under kept_push's), and a
statement's @alloc_ok is carried on the node (Node.uns), so a generic's clone keeps it.

A frame holding a new peak of facts made a record and grew the free list; now nothing is made until
64 are held at once. The two record-count tests hold the 64.

ludic deps --allocs (25.2) found phys_float's five pushes per drop reaching the water and
phys_sink's filtered copies per removal.

ludic deps --allocs (25.2) found npc_pick_name making a list of the body's names at every spawn and
np_left making a new list of the recent names at every retire.

actor_own_skin(a) gives an actor its own clone of its model's skeleton and actor_release frees it
(skin_clone_free: the pose, matrices, views and scratch the clone made; the rest data stays its
source's). gvk_startup_state, at the end of gvk_init, makes the scratch and tables a draw used to
make on first need (gvk_tmp_buf, the pipeline fast cache, the set key and per-program uniform
offsets pre-sized to 4096 programs, skip/seen/size words, spare and retired lists, the grass cull's
words), and those frame paths no longer start them. Compiled (steady).

@alloc_ok with its reason on what is made once per resource and kept (textures, programs, samplers,
views, layouts, memory blocks, the pipeline cache in gvk_pipe_build), on resize and swapchain
remakes, on screenshots and dumps, on a world being set up (streams, layers, water, post, bakes), on
loads (gltf_load, skin_load, tex_load*, png_decode, fonts) and on R3D_PROF / drawstats.
gltf_cached's hit path is its own and makes nothing; the miss (gltf_cached_load) is declared.
m4_look_at (now over m4_look_at_xyz) and m4_inverse work on scalars, and cam_update makes no scratch.
Left: lazy first-use starts, error and debug prints, and scratch made and freed each call (churn,
plan 25.3). Compiled (steady, and ludic deps over the game).

A field declared '@frame run: fn(...)' makes every function stored in it a frame root, as a System's
tick is. @alloc_ok("why") before a statement takes that statement out of frame_allocs and makes what
it allocates declared at run time; a function holding one keeps the fence's scope depth and puts it
back at its return, so a return inside the statement cannot leave the scope open. @alloc_ok above
'export function' was lost - export parses the declaration one call down - and is now carried to it.

The census reads ludic.physics' jph_heap_bytes/_peak and the Vulkan runtime's lvk_ac_bytes/_peak by
name (dlsym, so nothing a package declares is declared twice) and prints jolt, vulkan and the rest
of the heap apart. An @alloc_ok function counts a scope in and out (@lp_fdecl): what it and its
callees make is marked declared in the side table, reported as 'declared' in the census and left
out of a frame's verdict and of Mem.kept().

gvk_pipeline_fast's miss (the build and the six cache pushes) is its own function, so the fence can
declare it: @alloc_ok("pipeline cache: one per variant the game draws") once lang/memory-fence's
compiler is merged (the annotation is not known on this base). Compiled.

deps_reach's graph gains the handlers and each @On body (an emit reaches its event's listeners).
Roots: a handler in a frame phase, every reducer, an @On body, and a function stored as a System's
tick. Every allocating construct in what they reach - new, a list literal, push (grow), text built
by + or a template, words/floats/buffer/bytes - is a falloc line with the shortest chain from a
root (root>..>last six), and the program's count is frame_allocs. @alloc_ok("why") on a function or
a handler takes it and what only it reaches out; the reason is required. ludic deps --allocs lists
them, and frame_allocs is a number --check ratchets. Maroon Lake starts at 2661.
Not yet: @frame on a step list's field (only 'tick' is a root field so far), statement-level
@alloc_ok, the three lints.

Jolt's Allocate/Reallocate/Free/AlignedAllocate/AlignedFree go to libc's malloc with the size in a
16-byte header, and atomic counters keep live bytes, the peak and the blocks asked for (its job
threads allocate too). The fence reads the three exports extern_weak to judge Jolt by its plateau.
jolt_heap_test: a ground in and out 1100 times holds 46,482,514 bytes after the first 100 and after
all of them, the peak does not move, and a closed world gives back every byte it took. The macOS
library is rebuilt; the Windows DLL still has to be rebuilt on the PC.

Plan 25.1c: vk_mac.ll's @lvk_ac (posix_memalign under a 16-byte header of scope/offset/size, atomic
counters) passed at every render3d create/destroy (49 sites; the caps probe keeps its own null pair);
lvk_ac_bytes/_peak/_allocs/_scope_bytes for the fence, Vk.alloc_bytes. vk_win.ll: null and 0.
MoltenVK 1.4.2 counted 0 live bytes through them in steady. Fence findings: gvk_pipeline freed its 17
create infos (and reuses one bufs list); actor_init fills ac_spare with 512 records (actor_fresh,
m4_new, v3_new at first placement in play). Compiled, not run (the user's call).

The fence found np_fact_record making a record in five frames of every scenario: the pool grew to
each new peak of facts held at once, and q_unheld's free list and the queue's two lists grew with it.

The census's native line is malloc's live bytes over every zone since judging began less what
Ludic's tracked blocks kept - the libraries' and drivers' growth, read before the census file is
opened. A tracked block counts malloc_size(), not the size asked for, so kept is what the heap pays
and the residual carries no rounding. @malloc_zone_statistics is declared once, by the fence or by
Os.heap_bytes.

Every allocation the compiler emits goes through @lp_malloc/@lp_calloc/@lp_realloc/@lp_free, and a
Ludic-level one first stores its site (function, file, line, kind) in @lp_site. Off, that is one load
and a predictable branch (30 M allocations: 0.87-0.91 s against 0.87-0.90 s on leaks2).
On (the default in a headless build, and windowed under R3D_DEV), tracking starts at the first frame
on its own and judging once R3D_ALLOC_WARM frames in a row kept nothing (600) or R3D_ALLOC_WARM_MAX
after (re)start; Mem.play()/Mem.rewarm() sends a load back to its warm-up. A judged frame that ends
holding more than it began with is reported by site with its callers (the unwinder, taken only once
judging) and fails the run with exit 86 (R3D_ALLOC_FENCE=off|count|warn|fail). R3D_ALLOC_CENSUS
writes the totals and top sites at exit. The build's defaults are --fence=, --fence-warm=,
--fence-census= or a fence line in the program's package.ludic; the environment overrides them.
The runtime is IR (emit_fence_ir.ludic, generated from a template); tracking is a side table in one
calloc'd region, so no block carries a header and pointers crossing to natives stay safe. Examples
alloc_fence, alloc_fence_leak and alloc_fence_auto with cases in ludic-dev test; reseeded.

The encoder appends into RtJsonState's buffer (grown only past the biggest document yet): ints and
Q16.16 fixeds written as digits in place, floats through string() and freed. Json.encode copies the
answer out once; Json.write_file hands the buffer to Fs.write_text (.tmp + rename) and keeps nothing.
json_saves.ludic: exact text, the file equals encode, parse round-trips, 1000 saves grow 0; clean
under MallocScribble. json_quote (the + builder) is gone.

A prompt that comes and goes as a player walks (co-op's netleak: in_get, cmp_*_new, bd_class, value_slot/put)
made a new record, props and model on every mount, and an action's call answered into a new Val (ev_call_with).
examples/library/ui_remount: two thousand comings and goings hold the heap at 0, and the counter starts at 0.

An event was a tree of values encoded into a new string, a dropped line was never given back, and
every batch and save joined the queue into another. Now: telemetry_props / telemetry_str / _int /
_bool write the properties as JSON into a buffer the state keeps; the line is written beside it,
its time worked out from the clock's seconds (TelemetryWorld.clock_s, was stamp); its bytes go
into one ring (ring_bytes, at most queue_max lines), the oldest overwritten past either; a batch
and the file are written into a third kept buffer and go as bytes (TelemetryTransport.send takes
the bytes and their length; Http.body_bytes, Fs.write_bytes). The facts are pooled.
tests/ring_test: ten thousand events past the cap in lines and in bytes, 0 bytes of heap; the line
exact JSON, escaped, 2000-02-29 right; the batch puts the id in; the file round-trips.
