Just saw this on Sourceforge: http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/emery/hoard/
Hoard is a fast, scalable and memory-efficient allocator for multiprocessors. Hoard solves the heap contention problem caused when multiple threads call dynamic memory allocation functions like malloc() and free() (or new and delete). Hoard can dramatically improve the performance of multithreaded programs running on multiprocessors. I wonder if a Linux JVM would benefit from something like this?
