1， splay tree
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/14525/Heap-Manager-for-Allocating-Memory-from-a-Shared-M
有两个树LENGTH_TREE 和 POINTER_TREE
2. dlmalloc
http://g.oswego.edu/dl/html/malloc.html
这是个很出名的实现，据说glibc就是基于它的实现。 它把类似大小的组成bin以便改进速度和降低总体的fragmentation
对于小于256byte的请求，使用了一个简单的两倍best fit分配器。如果在当前bin里面没有free blocks，就会将下一个bin分成两半
对于256byte以上但是小于mmap要求的，dlmalloc使用了一个in-place的bitwise trie算法。如果没有足够的空闲空间，dlmalloc会通过system call增大heap大小
For requests above the mmap threshold (a "largebin" request), the memory is always allocated using the mmap system call. The threshold is usually 256 KB.[11] The mmap method averts problems with huge buffers trapping a small allocation at the end after their expiration, but always allocates an entire page of memory, which on many architectures is 4096 bytes in size.[12]
对于大于mmap的请求( "largebin" 请求)，内存总是使用mmap实现。这个threshold一般是256kb
3. wiki上列出了常见的一些实现

4. tcmalloc （Thread-caching malloc ）
Every thread has local storage for small allocations. For large allocations mmap or sbrk can be used. TCMalloc, a malloc developed by Google,[15] has garbage-collection for local storage of dead threads. The TCMalloc is considered to be more than twice as fast as glibc's ptmalloc for multithreaded programs.[16][17]
5.支持gc的allocator （for c）
