Nah Lock: A Lock-Free Memory Allocator

Unfortunately, it seems the git repository mentioned is not publicly available. I searched for 'apodolsk' and found one on github, but the nalloc code is not there. Luckily, it seems the author is on HN (user: "gosu"):

  I toyed with scalable allocators for a course a few years back.
  It's a little embarassing, but if you want to see what the costs
  actually are:

With luck he'll notice that his nalloc work is on the front page of HN, and possibly tell us if the nalloc code is available somewhere.

If you have a local AFS install, it looks like you can clone from: /afs/andrew/usr2/apodolsk/repo/nalloc_nonbare

It looks like the public AFS/web gateways around don't seem to support .git directories (huh!). But, I have cloned it and mirrored a git bundle:

http://emarhavil.com/~joshua/nalloc.bdl

wget it, then 'git clone nalloc.bdl nalloc'.

That isn't working for me. Probably easier to just wget from http://www-afs.secure-endpoints.com/afs/ANDREW.CMU/usr2/apod...
