Will try this one.
To aid you (and others):
http://www.archiware.com/downloads/nedmalloc_tcl.tar.gz
Download and peek at README file. This compiles on all
machines I tested and works pretty fine in terms of speed.
I haven't tested the memory size nor have any idea about
fragmentation, but the speed is pretty good.
Just look what this does on the Mac Pro (http://www.apple.com/macpro)
which is currently the fastest Mac available:
Testing standard allocator with 5 threads ...
This allocator achieves 531241.923013ops/sec under 5 threads
Testing Tcl allocator with 5 threads ...
This allocator achieves 439181.119284ops/sec under 5 threads
Testing nedmalloc with 5 threads ...
This allocator achieves 4137423.021490ops/sec under 5 threads
nedmalloc allocator is 7.788209 times faster than standard
Tcl allocator is 0.826706 times faster than standard
nedmalloc is 9.420767 times faster than Tcl allocator
Hm... if I was not able to get same/similar results
on other Mac's, I'd say this is a cheat. But it isn't.
