Raffaele P. Guidi commented on DIRECTMEMORY-40:
-----------------------------------------------
Also, about this:
"I found more natural to have 2 list of pointers"
it used to be like this a long time ago but then I realized that moving
pointers from a list to another should be "transactional" (not literally, of
course) and also causes a lot of garbage collection. Having switched to a
single list approach - with josql on top of it (select * from pointer where
free=true) feels pretty natural and solves both problems
> Pointers merging with adjacent free pointers when freeing.
