boriel Wrote:REALLOC routine is implemented, and reduces fragmentation.Then if you want to compact it then there is no real way to do that. Is there
a way to do that without having all that metadata around? If you got a big
program that works with text then compacting may be needed or give the
program a very large heap and even that can eventually run out without
compacting.
