Most Malleable Memory Management Method
Examples for wanting to manage the memory usage of your program can be to reduce the cost of heap allocations, improve locality of reference, or maybe reduce heap fragmentation.
Regardless of reason, PMR, Polymorphic Memory Resource, is available since C++17, and makes your life much easier.
I will show you...
* Tools and techniques for analysing the memory usage of your program.
* How PMR makes memory management easier.
* How to use PMR with the standard library types.
* How to make your own types use PMR.
* Advice, and pitfalls to avoid, on your quest to improving the memory usage of your program.

Björn wrote his first program in 1980. After completing his MSc in CS and Engineering in 1994, programming has been the primary source of income, mostly from writing embedded software for communications systems. He has been working for a while at Net Insight, where he wears many hats, including mentor, trouble shooter, network communications expert, software architect and programmer; the latter in increasingly modern C++.
Occasionally Björn has been seen tinkering with unorthodox software constructs, pondering "what can be done with this?" He lives in Stockholm
