#8007: [app_server] fully unresponsive when resizing window of big textfile -----------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: ttcoder | Owner: axeld Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: System/Kernel | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: 7882, 8136 Has a Patch: 1 | Platform: All -----------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by bonefish): Hey jua. Good to see you progressing. Regarding the heap the port code uses, it is not *the* kernel heap allocator. It's the old heap allocator code that is no longer used elsewhere. The kernel heap uses the slab allocator. The port heap still uses the old heap allocator, since it supports `B_NO_LOCK` areas (i.e. swappable areas), which the slab allocator doesn't. If switching to the slab, it would probably be better to just switch to the actual kernel heap instead of using object caches manually (the kernel heap uses more fine grained size classes). -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8007#comment:90> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
