Reduce rtree memory usage by storing booleans (1 byte each) rather than pointers. The rtree code is only used to record whether jemalloc manages a chunk of memory, so there's no need to store pointers in the rtree. Increase rtree node size to 64 KiB in order to reduce tree depth from 13 to 3 on 64-bit systems. The conversion to more compact leaf nodes was enough by itself to make the rtree depth 1 on 32-bit systems; due to the fact that root nodes are smaller than the specified node size if possible, the node size change has no impact on 32-bit systems (assuming default chunk size). |

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/
