Abstract: The FreeBSD project has been engaged in ongoing work to provide scalable support for multi-processor computer systems since version 5. Sufficient progress has been made that the C library's malloc(3) memory allocator is now a potential bottleneck for multi-threaded applications running on multiprocessor systems. In this paper, I present a new memory allocator that builds on the state of the art to provide scalable concurrent allocation for applications. Benchmarks indicate that with this... (Update)
