Cross-platform Rust global memory allocator using rpmalloc.
See the rpmalloc README for a detailed description of how the allocator works, peforms, and compares with other allocators.
To use rpmalloc as the global allocator in your Rust binary crate, in Cargo.toml add:
[dependencies]
rpmalloc = "0.2.0"And then in one of your .rs files:
#[global_allocator]
static ALLOC: rpmalloc::RpMalloc = rpmalloc::RpMalloc;It is also possible to configure how the allocator should be built through a set of feature flags that correspond to the rpmalloc C library ENABLE_x defines:
- Overall:
statistics,validate_args,asserts,guards - Cache:
unlimited_cache,unlimited_global_cache,unlimited_thread_cache,global_cache,thread_cache,adaptive_thread_cache
Example usage:
[dependencies]
rpmalloc = { version = "0.2.0", features = ["guards", "statistics"] }See rpmalloc README for detailed descriptions of the config options.
Note that all of these have not been tested together with this Rust crate.
This crate has been tested to support the following platforms and Rust targets:
x86_64-pc-windows-msvcx86_64-apple-darwinx86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
PRs to increase the amount of supported targets are welcome, but they should add CI verification and avoid adding additional dependencies.
We welcome community contributions to this project.
