I had tested Linux and Solaris boxes as well. I have 2 Solaris boxes: one with 1 cpu and one with 2 cpu's. The same goes for Mac OSX. Unfortunaltey, I have only 1cpu linux boxes to test... What I saw is: 1cpu malloc better than ckalloc 2cpu ckalloc better than malloc regardless which OS. Cheers Zoran |
