Abstract

Technologies are generally described for methods and systems effective to implement a memory allocation accelerator. A processor may generate a request for allocation of a requested chunk of memory. The request may be received by a memory allocation accelerator configured to be in communication with the processor. The memory allocation accelerator may process the request to identify an address for a particular chunk of memory corresponding to the request and may return the address to the processor.
