synopsis:       In memory storage of deeply evaluated data structure
category:       Data
description:
    This package provides minimal functionality for working with
    "compact regions", which hold a fully evaluated Haskell object graph.
    These regions maintain the invariant that no pointers live inside the struct
    that point outside it, which ensures efficient garbage collection without
    ever reading the structure contents (effectively, it works as a manually
    managed "oldest generation" which is never freed until the whole is
    released).

    Internally, the struct is stored a single contiguous block of memory,
    which allows efficient serialization and deserialization of structs
    for distributed computing.
