Let's Write a Malloc

• tlsf

  2 1,064 0.0 C

  Two-Level Segregated Fit memory allocator implementation.

I've had to find a malloc simple enough to port to another language recently and this one was really well written with good features and research papers behind it: https://github.com/mattconte/tlsf

• mark-sweep

  12 709 10.0 C

  A simple mark-sweep garbage collector in C

Never forget:

> Let me stress here that while this collector is simple, it isn’t a toy.

> There are a ton of optimizations you can build on top of this—in GCs and programming languages, optimization is 90% of the effort—but the core code here is a legitimate real GC.

> It’s very similar to the collectors that were in Ruby and Lua until recently.

> You can ship production code that uses something exactly like this.

> Now go build something awesome!
