Rather than linking to a paragraph on someone's blog, this ought to link directly to:
http://www.canonware.com/jemalloc/ http://www.canonware.com/jemalloc/
It looks like in addition to jemalloc serving FreeBSD, NetBSD, and Mozilla, it is also used for Facebook servers:
Since 2009 I have adapted jemalloc to handle the extreme loads Facebook servers commonly operate under. Facebook uses jemalloc in many components that are integral to serving its website.
- self 17y agoThe blog entry was written by Jason Evans, the author of jemalloc.
- NathanKP 17y agoOkay, I understand that, but judging from the briefness of the post and its lack of detail it looks like Jason Evans must have simply intended to direct his readers to the official site. Therefore it would seem to me that this post should have linked straight to the official site as well.
- self 17y agoThe official site doesn't have an announcement, though. It's not exactly "news" to link there.
