I might be wrong but the heap size being at most 232 bytes means that heap blocks can be represented by two bytes: one byte for the start offset, and one byte f

I might be wrong but the heap size being at most 232 bytes means that heap blocks can be represented by two bytes: one byte for the start offset, and one byte for its length.
- jjoonathan 9y agoIt's 2 to the 32nd power, not 232 :-)
- tzahola 9y agoOh well, that makes more sense than 232. But then again, it lets you fit the bookkeping data into a single 64bit word (32bit pointer + 32bit size).
