This is the seventh in a series about locals in OCaml. This episode explains the challenges around tail-call optimization and how to keep local variables from escaping their region. I introduce the [@nontail] annotation to prevent tail-call optimization, which is often needed when writing code with locals.

A lazy explanation for its utility would be...
