Jason Evans d6742bfbd3 Add thread-specific caching for small size classes, based on magazines. ... This caching allows for completely lock-free allocation/deallocation in the steady state, at the expense of likely increased memory use and fragmentation. Reduce the default number of arenas to 2*ncpus, since thread-specific caching typically reduces arena contention. Modify size class spacing to include ranges of 2^n-spaced, quantum-spaced, cacheline-spaced, and subpage-spaced size classes. The advantages are: fewer size classes, reduced false cacheline sharing, and reduced internal fragmentation for allocations that are slightly over 512, 1024, etc. Increase RUN_MAX_SMALL, in order to limit fragmentation for the subpage-spaced size classes. Add a size-->bin lookup table for small sizes to simplify translating sizes to size classes. Include a hard-coded constant table that is used unless custom size class spacing is specified at run time. Add the ability to disable tiny size classes at compile time via MALLOC_TINY.		2008-08-27 02:00:53 +00:00
