## Why dlmalloc?
|
|
|
|
This crate is a port of [dlmalloc] to Rust, and doesn't rely on C. The primary
|
|
purpose of this crate is to serve as the default allocator for Rust on the
|
|
`wasm32-unknown-unknown` target. At the time this was written the wasm target
|
|
didn't support C code, so it was required to have a Rust-only solution.
|
|
|
|
This allocator is not the most performant by a longshot. It is primarily, I
|
|
think, intended for being easy to port and easy to learn. I didn't dive too deep
|
|
into the implementation when writing it, it's just a straight port of the C
|
|
version.
|
|
|
|
It's unlikely that Rust code needs to worry/interact with this allocator in
|
|
general. Most of the time you'll be manually switching to a different allocator
|
|
:)
