Hello, While I've always thought SLUB was the default and recommended allocator, I'm surprise to find that it's not always the case:
$ find arch/*/configs -name "*defconfig" | wc -l 452 $ grep -r "SLOB=y" arch/*/configs/ | wc -l 11 $ grep -r "SLAB=y" arch/*/configs/ | wc -l 245 This shows that, SLUB being the default, there are actually more defconfigs that choose SLAB. I wonder... * Is SLAB a proper choice? or is it just historical an never been re-evaluated? * Does the average embedded guy knows which allocator to choose and what's the impact on his platform?
