compll - A compressed memory allocator ====================================== DESCRIPTION compll is a small library that provides replacement functions for malloc() and free() that allow the application memory to be compressed. INSTALLATION Due to the small size of this library, it is recommended to simply add the compll.h and compll.c files to your project and compile and statically link them into your application as if they were part of your project. The library should compile on any conforming C99 compiler, or a C89 compiler with support for 'long long' integers. [unsigned] short types are assumed to be exactly 16 bits wide. So far, only GCC has been tested. A minimal Makefile is included to build an object file from the library and to run the tests. The test suite requires quite a bit of memory in addition to the 'prove' program, which should come with a default installation of Perl.
