AllocatorsComparison  
Compare space-efficiency of various memory allocators.

Introduction

Allocators compared:

This data was collected by replaying (see: SwapReplay) this data over allocator test modules. So, in effect, we replaced compcache allocator with these allocators and noted memory usage over time.

Details

Data plotted is available here

Data Summary

Peak Memory Usage:

So, KMalloc uses ~43% more memory than TLSF!
