Interesting. Is there a book that focuses on evolution of allocators so we can follow along and code allocators of different difficulties?

- samwho 3y agoGood question! I’m not aware of one, but I also haven’t looked. Most of the research for this post was done by reading papers for various malloc implementations (phkmalloc, dlmalloc, tcmalloc, mimalloc) and reading their source code.
- markus_zhang 3y agoThanks! I'll perhaps find older versions of those functions to study.
