I was doing some experiments with the runtime and I didn't notice the TypeInfo instances being allocated by the GC. Are these put into the text or data segments? Is there anyway to find out more about this process?

Yeah, they are in the data segment as static data (just like if you declared your own static array).

Awesome, thanks. That is what I was hoping for.
