Can you give some details about IPP dynamic memory allocation functions? Do you have your own optimized heap implementation, or it is just a wrapper for existing Operating System's malloc() that ensures proper alignment?
It's well known that, for example, default Visual C++ heap manager is not any good in multithreaded environment, especially on SMP systems.
Looks at the following benchmarks:

It would be great if IPP provided decent heap manager of its own.
You could base it on one of the free libraries (not sure on license terms) such as:
http://www.cs.umass.edu/~emery/hoard/
http://gee.cs.oswego.edu/dl/html/malloc.html
And make it configurable so that the IPP users could select the best heap implementation for their application.

Hi,
currently we have just wrappers for C run time malloc/free, with adding allocation of aligned memory blocks. Thank you for information and suggestion, we will consider that.
Regards,
Vladimir

I request thatyou also consider including a memory pooling policy in addition or as an adjunt to a more optimal allocation approach. Memory poolingis a requirement when doing continuousimage processing on video.
Thanks,
Phil

Hi, what do you mean under pooling of memory?
