问题 Closed . This question needs to be more focused. It is not currently accepting answers. Want to improve this question? Update the question so it focuses on one problem only by editing this post. Closed 2 years ago . I'm a little bit confused. In the OS course we were told that all OSes take care of memory fragmentation by paging or segmentation and there is no contiguous physical memory allocation at all. OS uses different levels of addressing (logical/physical) to avoid the contiguous memory

Linux: how to check the largest contiguous address range available to a process

问题 I want to enter the pid at the command line and get back the largest contiguous address space that has not been reserved. Any ideas? Our 32 bit app, running on 64 bit RHEL 5.4, craps out after running for a while, say 24 hours. At that time it is only up to 2.5 gb of memory use, but we get out of memory errors. We think it failing to mmap large files because the app's memory space is fragmented. I wanted to go out to the production servers and just test that theory. 回答1: Slighly nicer version

.NET application memory usage - high unused .NET and unmanaged memory and fragmentation

问题 I am using ANTS memory profiler to diagnose an increase in memory leak I am facing in one of my .NET 2.0 applications. I took 7 snapshots of the process over a period of 7.5 hours, and here is a tabular representation of the data obtained - G1 reprsents generation 1 size and G2 generation 2 size. Except for the unmanaged space and private bytes, all other values are in MB. My questions are - Why is there such high unused .NET space even when the heap sizes are low ? My large object heap goes

Memory Fragmentation in C++

问题 I want to use malloc()/new to allocate 256KB memory to variable m. Then, use m to store data such as strings and numbers. My problem is how to save data to m and retrive them. For example, how to store int 123456 in offsets 0 to 3 and read it to variable x? Or store "David" string from offset 4 to 8(or 9 with \0) and then, retrive it to variable s? 回答1: You can store an integer by casting pointers. unsigned char *p = new unsigned char[256 * 1000]; *(int *) p = 123456; int x = *(int *) p; This

What algorithm to apply for continuious reallocation of small memory chunks?

问题 In C program I face transactions that require to have alot of memory chunks, I need to know if there is an algorithm or best practice teqnique used to handle all these malloc/free, I've used arrays to store these memory chunks but at some point the array itself gets full and reallocating the array is just more waste, what is the elegant way to handle this issue? 回答1: The best algorithm in this case would be free list allocator + binary search tree. You are asking one big memory chunk from

I'm a little bit confused. In the OS course we were told that all OSes take care of memory fragmentation by paging or segmentation and there is no contiguous physical memory allocation at all. OS uses different levels of addressing (logical/physical) to avoid the contiguous memory allocation. Now here there are so many discussions about it. My question is: Is this problem real in c++ programming for OSes supporting logical addressing (does any process crash just because of memory fragmentation)? if yes, why in the first place each OS tries to avoid contiguous addressing? There are 2 layers:

Heap fragmentation when using byte arrays

问题 I have a C# 4.0 application (single producer/single consumer) which transfers huge amount of data in chunks. Although there's no new memory allocation I run out of memory after a while. I profiled memory using Redgate memory profiler and there are a lot of free memory there. It says free memory cannot be used because of fragmentation. I use a blocking collection as the buffer and byte arrays as the members: BlockingCollection<byte[]> segments = new BlockingCollection<byte[]>(8); // producer:
