STINNER Victor added the comment: I'm not sure that I understood correctly, but if you are proposing to use malloc()/free() instead of mmap()/munmap() to allocate arenas in pymalloc, you have to know that we already different allocators depending on the platform: https://docs.python.org/dev/c-api/memory.html#the-pymalloc-allocator
By the way, it is possible to modify the arena allocator at runtime: https://docs.python.org/dev/c-api/memory.html#customize-pymalloc-arena-allocator ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26601> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
