Abstract
One embodiment comprises a hierarchical heap allocator system. The system comprises a system-level allocator for monitoring run-time resource usage information for an application having multiple application threads. The system further comprises a process-level allocator for dynamically balancing resources between the application threads based on the run-time resource usage information. The system further comprises multiple thread-level allocators. Each thread-level allocator facilitates resource allocation and resource deallocation for a corresponding application thread.
