I am in need of source code to an efficient heap implementation. C++ souce would be optimal, but C would be OK too. If anyone can point me at some public domain code (e.g. anonymous ftp) I would very much appreciate it. Code that is not public domain but is available for scientific uses is fine too. Such code might have been developed as part of someone's garbage collector or library. It occurs to me that g++/gcc must implement malloc. Does anyone have reasonably unbiassed information as to the efficiency of that code? Is it substantially better than standard BSD/SunOS/SystemV malloc()? We have gnu source here so I don't need references to gnu. Thanks, Daniel Edelson daniel@cis.ucsc.edu
