folly::Indestructible<T> is a class template that makes a static variable well, indestructible. Notice that it's meant for static variables in the Meyers Singleton pattern. If it's for heap allocated memory, it would just be called memory leak instead of "indestructible".
It boils down to making a destructor of T not actually destroy the underlying storage. The trick used by folly is to use union.
union Storage {
T value;
Storage() : value() {}
~Storage() {}
};
From cppreference https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/destructor
For both user-defined or implicitly-defined destructors, after the body of the destructor is executed, the compiler calls the destructors for all non-static non-variant members of the class, in reverse order of declaration, then it calls the destructors of all direct non-virtual base classes
Because value is a variant member of the union, it won't be destructed if Storage s; is destructed.
