Adds cpp bindings for jemalloc, along with necessary autoconf settings. This is mostly to add sized deallocation support, which can't be added from C directly. Sized deallocation is ~10% microbench improvement. * Import ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 from the autoconf repo, seems like the easiest way to get c++14 detection. * Adds various other changes, like CXXFLAGS, to configure.ac. * Adds new rules to Makefile.in for src/jemalloc-cpp.cpp, and a basic unittest. * Both new and delete are overridden, to ensure jemalloc is used for both. * TODO future enhancement of avoiding extra PLT thunks for new and delete - sdallocx and malloc are publicly exported jemalloc symbols, using an alias would link them directly. Unfortunately, was having trouble getting it to play nice with jemalloc's namespace support. Testing: Tested gcc 4.8, gcc 5, gcc 5.2, clang 4.0. Only gcc >= 5 has sized deallocation support, verified that the rest build correctly. Tested mac osx and Centos. Tested --with-jemalloc-prefix and --without-export. This resolves #202. |

jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support. jemalloc first came into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior. In 2010 jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features such as heap profiling and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks. Modern jemalloc releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility remains critical. Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real world applications. The COPYING file contains copyright and licensing information. The INSTALL file contains information on how to configure, build, and install jemalloc. The ChangeLog file contains a brief summary of changes for each release. URL: http://jemalloc.net/
