Well, depending on FastMM is short sight too because FastMM is using heavily assembler, so it is i386 only. I think a better approach is to extend the current fpc memory manager to perform better in multithreaded environments. > is concentrating on multithreaded, multiprocessor applications, wich are > lock and waitfree, right now. Well, the lockless multithreaded memory managers are a myth. Atomic exchange operations take a also a lot of time and are locked by the cpu as well. > > Is there anyone around who is using FastMM in FPC? > A guide what is necessary to get FastMM working with FPC > is much appreciated. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
