C++中内存池的简单原理及实现详解_开发_开发者

为什么要用内存池

C++程序默认的内存管理（new，delete，malloc，free）会频繁地在堆上分配和释放内存，导致性能的损失，产生大量的内存碎片，降低内存的利用率。默认的内存管理因为被设计的比较通用，所以在性能上并不能做到极致。

因此，很多时候需要根据业务需求设计专用内存管理器，便于针对特定数据结构和使用场合的内存管理，比如：内存池。

内存池原理

内存池的思想是，在真正使用内存之前，预先申请分配一定数量、大小预设的内存块留作备用。当有新的内存需求时，就从内存池中分出一部分内存块，若内存块不够再继续申请新的内存，当内存释放后就回归到内存块留作后续的复用，使得内存使用效率得到提升，一般也不会产生不可控制的内存碎片。

内存池设计

算法原理：

1.预申请一个内存区chunk，将内存中按照对象大小划分成多个内存块block

2.维持一个空闲内存块链表，通过指针相连，标记头指针为第一个空闲块

3.每次新申请一个对象的空间，则将该内存块从空闲链表中去除，更新空闲链表头指针

4.每次释放一个对编程客栈象的空间，则重新将该内存块加到空闲链表头

5.如果一个内存区占满了，则新开辟一个内存区，维持一个内存区的链表，同指针相连，头指针指向最新的内存区，新的内存块从该区内重新划分和申请

如图所示：
