jemalloc/jemalloc

Features

• Custom Memory Allocators - Provides a high-performance custom memory allocator designed to replace the standard C library malloc and free functions.
• मेमोरी एलोकेटर्स - Implements a general-purpose memory allocation library emphasizing fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency.
• High-Concurrency Memory Scaling - Optimizes how threads request and release memory to prevent performance bottlenecks in large-scale, high-concurrency software.
• High Performance Allocators - Provides a high-performance allocation implementation optimized for execution speed and reduced lock contention via multiple arenas.
• Arena-Based Memory Management - Implements an arena-based memory management strategy that binds threads to specific pools to reduce lock contention.
• Arena Allocators - Assigns threads to independent memory pools to reduce lock contention and improve data locality.
• Slab Allocators - Utilizes slab allocators to group objects of the same size, minimizing internal fragmentation and speeding up lookups.
• C Heap Allocators - Serves as a high-performance replacement for the standard C library malloc and free functions.
• Extent-Based Management - Uses extensible trees to track contiguous blocks of memory pages for efficient reclamation and fragmentation control.
• Multi-threaded Memory Management - Reduces lock contention and fragmentation when allocating memory across many CPU cores in high-performance environments.
• Thread Local Storage - Implements per-thread buffers to store frequently used memory chunks, eliminating the need for global locks.
• Metadata Address Mapping - Employs a multi-level radix tree structure to quickly map memory addresses to allocation metadata.
• Huge Page Optimizations - Utilizes transparent huge pages for internal metadata storage to minimize translation lookaside buffer misses.
• Low Latency Allocation - Optimizes allocation paths and offloads memory purging to background threads to ensure minimal latency.
• Heap Allocation Strategies - Ships a heap profiling tool that monitors allocation patterns and analyzes usage to detect leaks.
• Unused Memory Recovery - Offloads the recovery and return of unused memory pages to the operating system using asynchronous background threads.
• Custom Memory Hooks - Provides custom hooks to override default operating system memory request and release methods.
• Deferred Page Purging - Implements asynchronous background threads to return unused physical memory pages to the operating system and reduce latency.
• Memory Purging Tuning - Provides configuration options to tune the decay time and methods for purging unused memory back to the operating system.
• Memory Profilers - Includes a built-in tool for analyzing heap allocation patterns and identifying memory leaks.
• Memory Management - General-purpose allocator with concurrency support.
• Memory Allocation - General purpose malloc with fragmentation avoidance and concurrency support.
• Memory Management Libraries - Memory allocator emphasizing fragmentation avoidance.
