This project is a garbage collection library and memory allocator for C and C++ that provides automatic reclamation of unreachable objects. It functions as a memory management system that can replace standard allocation functions to automate memory reclamation without requiring source modification.
The system is distinguished by its ability to perform incremental and generational garbage collection to reduce application pauses, as well as parallel collection to distribute tracing across multiple CPU cores. It includes a specialized string manipulation library that uses shared structures to enable zero-copy substring extraction and constant-time concatenation for large text blocks.
The toolkit further covers heap analysis and observability, including memory leak detection, buffer overflow reporting, and heap retention tracing. It provides integration for standard library containers, support for multithreaded synchronization through thread-local allocation buffers, and mechanisms for topological object finalization.
The library includes cross-platform portability support to handle memory alignment and data segment boundaries across different operating systems.
