Update:
|
||
|
||
Development of Jemalloc will transition back to the original open source
|
||
project: https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc. Meta’s fork of the Jemalloc
|
||
project will be fully archived as part of the transition. We look forward
|
||
to continuing the collaboration with the community to drive jemalloc.

|
||
------
|
||
|
||
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 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.
