Heh. Well, I trimmed out some, and am taking one point to the list.

Sander mentioned something about reaps. I remember that coming up a
while
back, but am not super clear on it. IIRC, it was a synthesis of pools and
being able to individually free items. Probably something right along the
lines of what you're looking for.
If you guys feel this works better for you then great!
My point is that (IIRC) reaps are essentially what you are building. There
is some actual academic research on their use. You might find that useful
for your own work.
Further, that we would want to look at your work and compare that with the
reap information, and bring that into APR.
The post about reaps is here:

I read the reaps article. I didn't quite understand how they actually code
their heaps and therefore it's hard to understand how fast it really is.
My approach is actually similar to theirs (pools with free) and they even
mention this kind of approach. I created pools which are internally managed
similar to Doug Lea style.
Do these guys make their code available someplace?
