Fixed-size? Do you mean an allocator that is optimized for allocation of blocks of a certain size, or an allocator that can only allocate blocks of a certain size? I have only written a couple of allocators, and the best one I did used fixed block sizes, such as 16 bytes, 32 bytes, 64 bytes and so on... I suppose that's the way dlmalloc works as well, and that's the problem. -- Best regards, Per Lundberg / Capio ApS Phone: +46-18-4186040 Fax: +46-18-4186049 Web: http://www.nobolt.com
