When jemalloc is linked into an executable (as opposed to a shared library), compiling with -fno-pic can have significant advantages, mainly because we don't have to go throught the GOT (global offset table). Users who want to link jemalloc into a shared library that could be dlopened need to link with libjemalloc_pic.a or libjemalloc.so. |

jemalloc is a general-purpose scalable concurrent malloc(3) implementation. This distribution is a stand-alone "portable" implementation that currently targets Linux and Apple OS X. jemalloc is included as the default allocator in the FreeBSD and NetBSD operating systems, and it is used by the Mozilla Firefox web browser on Microsoft Windows-related platforms. Depending on your needs, one of the other divergent versions may suit your needs better than this distribution. 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/
