+\section{Static Arrays}
+\label{sec:static-arrays}
+
+\cmucl{} supports static arrays which are arrays that are not moved by
+the garbage collector.  To create such an array, use the
+\kwd{allocation} option to \code{make-array} with a value of
+\kwd{malloc}.  These arrays appear as normal Lisp arrays, but are
+actually allocated from the \code{C} heap (hence the \kwd{malloc}).
+Thus, the number and size of such arrays are limited by the available
+\code{C} heap.
+
+Also, only certain types of arrays can be allocated.  The static array
+cannot be adjustable and cannot be displaced to.  The array must also
+be a \code{simple-array} of one dimension.  The element type is also
+constrained to be one of the types in
+Table~\ref{tbl:static-array-types}.

+The arrays are properly handled by GC.  GC will not move the arrays,
+but they will be properly removed up if they become garbage.
