	 * Static allocator that attempts to perform zero heap allocations by always keeping an active stack-allocated buffer. 
	 * If the size of allocated data goes over the set limit dynamic allocations will occur however.
	 *
	 * @note	This kind of allocator is only able to free all of its memory at once. Freeing individual elements
	 *			will not free the memory until a call to clear().
	 * 			
	 * @tparam	BlockSize			Size of the initially allocated static block, and minimum size of any dynamically allocated memory.
	 * @tparam	MaxDynamicMemory	Maximum amount of unused memory allowed in the buffer after a call to clear(). Keeping active dynamic 
	 *								buffers can help prevent further memory allocations at the cost of memory. This is not relevant
	 *								if you stay within the bounds of the statically allocated memory.
