Summary
Template class for scalable memory allocation.
Syntax
template<typename T> class scalable_allocator;
Header
#include "tbb/scalable_allocator.h"
Description
A scalable_allocator allocates and frees memory in a way that scales with the number of processors. A scalable_allocator models the allocator requirements described in Table 18. Using a scalable_allocator in place of std::allocator may improve program performance. Memory allocated by a scalable_allocator should be freed by a scalable_allocator, not by a std::allocator.
Members

The scalable memory allocator incorporates McRT technology developed by Intel’s PSL CTG team.
Summary
Low level interface for scalable memory allocation.
Syntax
extern "C" {
void* scalable_calloc ( size_t nobj, size_t size );
void scalable_free( void* ptr );
void* scalable_malloc( size_t size );
void* scalable_realloc( void* ptr, size_t size );
}
Header
#include "tbb/scalable_allocator.h"
Description
These functions provide a C level interface to the scalable allocator. Each routine scalable_x behaves analogously to the C standard library function x. Storage allocated by a scalable_x function should be freed or resized by a scalable_x function, not by a C standard library function. Likewise storage allocated by a C standard library function should not be freed or resized by a scalable_x function.
