Re: Bug#652425: Acknowledgement (ITP: treedb -- on-disk memory library)

[Philip Ashmore <contact@philipashmore.com>]

Long description:
 treedb can implement malloc functionality, and much more!
 Need a heap that allocates of a fixed size chunk of memory? No problem.
 But where treedb comes into its own is when it comes to allocating from a
 mmap()ed disk file - the memory becomes persistent.
 .
 If you follow the tests/examples, you too can store dictionaries, 
trees, lists
 or whatever you can think of in disk-based memory, just an open() and 
mmap()
 away.
 .
 Treedb comes with an AVL tree, doubly-linked-list and 
variable-entry-sized-array
 implementations for you to use in your data structures.
