The culture is changing. :) > Are you sure that > there's no good general-purpose allocator which they can use? Yes, I am sure. I shipped one of my libraries to a guy who works on various DSP chips. The native memory allocator on one of the DSP was very slow (some specific issues with how the DSP addresses the memory, I don't remember the details). This guy had to add his own new/delete operator to some of my internal classes to get about 10 times performance improvement. No, I really don't think that there is a hope for general purpose allocators. Eugene __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
