23 | Package: dbestfit - a dynamic memory allocator | ||
24 | Date: March 30, 2005 | ||
25 | Version: 3.3 | ||

28 | I wrote the dmalloc part for small allocation sizes to improve the behavior | ||
29 | of the built-in (first-fit) allocator found in pSOS (around 1996). | ||
30 | |||
31 | I wrote the bmalloc part (best-fit with splay-tree sorting) just for the fun | ||
32 | of it and to see how good malloc() clone I could make. The quality of my | ||
33 | implementation is still left to be judged in real-world tests. | ||
34 | |||
35 | TODO: | ||
36 | * Remove the final not-so-very-nice loop in dmalloc.c that checks for a block | ||
37 | with free fragments (when the list gets longer too much time might be spent | ||
38 | in that loop). | ||
39 | |||
40 | * Add semaphore protection in bmalloc. | ||
