Very many years ago I asked the same question on this mailing list :) Check it out here: http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lists/fpc-pascal/2002-November/004229.html IIRC, it worked on Win32 with boehmgc linked in as a DLL. Don't remember if it was faster than the default memory manager though. Cheers, -Krishna -- I love deadlines.
