NCollection_AccAllocator Class Reference

Class NCollection_AccAllocator - accumulating memory allocator. This class allocates memory on request returning the pointer to the allocated space. The allocation units are grouped in blocks requested from the system as required. This memory is returned to the system when all allocations in a block are freed. More...

Detailed Description

Class NCollection_AccAllocator - accumulating memory allocator. This class allocates memory on request returning the pointer to the allocated space. The allocation units are grouped in blocks requested from the system as required. This memory is returned to the system when all allocations in a block are freed.

By comparison with the standard new() and malloc() calls, this method is faster and consumes very small additional memory to maintain the heap.

By comparison with NCollection_IncAllocator, this class requires some more additional memory and a little more time for allocation and deallocation. Memory overhead for NCollection_IncAllocator is 12 bytes per block; average memory overhead for NCollection_AccAllocator is 28 bytes per block.

All pointers returned by Allocate() are aligned to 4 byte boundaries. To define the size of memory blocks requested from the OS, use the parameter of the constructor (measured in bytes).
