Scalable Memory Allocator

Scalable Memory Allocator#

Both the debug and release versions of oneAPI Threading Building Blocks (oneTBB) consists of two dynamic shared libraries, one with general support and the other with a scalable memory allocator. The latter is distinguished by malloc in its name. For example, the release versions for Windows* OS are tbb<version>.dll and tbbmalloc.dll respectively. Applications may choose to use only the general library, or only the scalable memory allocator, or both. See Memory Allocation for more information on memory allocation.
