ta_hold_memory¶
View page sourceControl When Thread Alloc Retains Memory For Future Use¶
Syntax¶
thread_alloc::hold_memory ( value )
Purpose¶
It should be faster, even when num_thread is equal to one,
for thread_alloc to hold onto memory.
Calling hold_memory with value equal to true,
instructs thread_alloc to hold onto memory,
and put it in the available pool,
after each call to return_memory .
value¶
If value is true,
thread_alloc with hold onto memory for future quick use.
If it is false, future calls to return_memory
will return the corresponding memory to the system.
By default (when hold_memory has not been called)
thread_alloc does not hold onto memory.
free_available¶
Memory that is being held by thread_alloc can be returned
to the system using free_available .
