Static allocation for compilers, by Alex Kladov
A post about the static allocation strategy used in TigerBeetle and its application to fast, predictable compilers and long-running C/C++ systems.
Published on November 1, 2026, Alex Kladov’s post explains the static allocation used in TigerBeetle: all memory is allocated during initialization, with no subsequent deallocation. The text clarifies that this does not mean using fixed-size static arrays and applies the idea to compilers, proposing a strategy aimed at speed and predictability.
To check the details and assess the proposal, consult Alex Kladov’s original post and verify its assumptions and technical examples there.
