Yeah ok, that's one way to be faster than a GC. Just don't bother deallocating at all

@lambdageek so I guess whether this is a good or bad idea comes down to "is this application #![no_alloc]?"
@lambdageek a thing I've noticed is this strategy actually *can* fail if it turns out your OS's VM page allocator is not fast or at some point stops being fast
