Message: [QUOTE="cr88192, post: 3094447"] ok, a little skimming, not much of comment thus far... but, mostly I am using VirtualAlloc because windows allows me to do certain things I can't do with malloc'ed memory (such as detecting memory write accesses). this is necessary for an incremental garbage collector in order to try to avoid accidentally losing references to memory objects due to actions being performed in other threads. ended up largely writing a kind of 'malloc replacement' for the purpose of supporting large objects (all the smaller objects are handled with a cell allocator). this allocator is based on blocks and free lists. I will probably also specify and implement code for wrapping the threads interface. or such... [/QUOTE]
