It took me less than a day to reimplement hbwmalloc.h on top of libnuma and dlmalloc ( https://github.com/jeffhammond/myhbwmalloc). Note that myhbwmalloc was an education exercise, not software that I actually think anyone should use. It is intentionally brittle (fast or fail - nothing in between).
One consequence of using libnuma to manage MCDRAM is that one can call numa_move_pages, which Jed has asserted is the single most important function call in the history of memory management ;-) Jeff > Perhaps I should try memkind calls since they may become much better. > > Hong (Mr.) > -- Jeff Hammond jeff.scie...@gmail.com http://jeffhammond.github.io/
