Remove code in arena_dalloc_bin_run() that preserved the "clean" state of trailing clean pages by splitting them into a separate run during deallocation. This was a useful mechanism for reducing dirty page churn when bin runs comprised many pages, but bin runs are now quite small. Remove the nextind field from arena_run_t now that it is no longer needed, and change arena_run_t's bin field (arena_bin_t *) to binind (index_t). These two changes remove 8 bytes of chunk header overhead per page, which saves 1/512 of all arena chunk memory. |

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, Valgrind integration, 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://www.canonware.com/jemalloc/
