A Quick OpenMP Memory Allocator Used by CppAD

Syntax
# include <cppad/omp_alloc.hpp>


Purpose
The C++ new and delete operators are thread safe, but this means that a thread may have to wait for a lock on these operations. Once memory is obtained for a thread, the omp_alloc memory allocator keeps that memory omp_available for the thread so that it can be re-used without waiting for a lock. All the CppAD memory allocations use this utility. The omp_free_available function should be used to return memory to the system (once it is no longer required by a thread).

Include
The routines in sections below are defined by cppad/omp_alloc.hpp. This file is included by cppad/cppad.hpp, but it can also be included separately with out the rest of the CppAD.

Deprecated 2011-08-23
Use thread_alloc instead.
