Hi, Thank you very much for your information. I am using current implementation of FreeBSD malloc. I am checking the performance on single CPU machine. I am using it in my own environment i am not using FreeBSD7.0. I disabled the MALLOC_DEBUG option in the malloc implementaton and checked the performance i see no difference the results are the same. ./mallco-test Starting test... Thread -1101005488 adjusted timing: 4.495931 seconds for 1000000 requests of 512 bytes. Could please tell me if anything else needs to be changed.?
