capa

long RArray::[union].as.heap.aux capa

Capacity of *ptr.

A continuous memory region of at least capa elements is expected to exist at *ptr. This can be bigger than len.

shared_root

const VALUE RArray::[union].as.heap.aux shared_root

Parent of the array.

Nowadays arrays can share their backend memory regions each other, constructing gigantic nest of objects. This situation is called "shared", and this is the field to control such properties.
