So we do need a GC or RC for arrays, structs, classes (anything heapish). Values for those could be allocated by a simple bump/region allocator or a dedicated allocator that support individual freeing (via RC or GC).
Wasn't it possible to enable GC for entire compiler? There can be hybrid approach: 1) first allocate from bump heap 2) when it reaches, say, 200MB, switch to GC.
