... or non-deterministic. Using such an allocator in a hard real-time system is simply not an option. AFAIK, a deterministic allocator must inevitably have a separate heap for each possible object size. The difficult part is reserving enough slots in each heap at startup, before deterministic reaction is necessary. I don't see how a system could do this automatically when memory is scarce.
