Split decay-based purging into two phases, the first of which uses lazy purging to convert dirty pages to "muzzy", and the second of which uses forced purging, decommit, or unmapping to convert pages to clean or destroy them altogether. Not all operating systems support lazy purging, yet the application may provide extent hooks that implement lazy purging, so care must be taken to dynamically omit the first phase when necessary. The mallctl interfaces change as follows: - opt.decay_time --> opt.{dirty,muzzy}_decay_time - arena.<i>.decay_time --> arena.<i>.{dirty,muzzy}_decay_time - arenas.decay_time --> arenas.{dirty,muzzy}_decay_time - stats.arenas.<i>.pdirty --> stats.arenas.<i>.p{dirty,muzzy} - stats.arenas.<i>.{npurge,nmadvise,purged} --> stats.arenas.<i>.{dirty,muzzy}_{npurge,nmadvise,purged} This resolves #521. |

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/
