11 /* {heap tuning parameters}
13 * These are parameters for controlling memory allocation. The heap
14 * is the area out of which scm_cons, and object headers are allocated.
16 * Each heap cell is 8 bytes on a 32 bit machine and 16 bytes on a
17 * 64 bit machine. The units of the _SIZE parameters are bytes.
18 * Cons pairs and object headers occupy one heap cell.
20 * SCM_INIT_HEAP_SIZE is the initial size of heap. If this much heap is
21 * allocated initially the heap will grow by half its current size
22 * each subsequent time more heap is needed.
24 * If SCM_INIT_HEAP_SIZE heap cannot be allocated initially, SCM_HEAP_SEG_SIZE
25 * will be used, and the heap will grow by SCM_HEAP_SEG_SIZE when more
26 * heap is needed. SCM_HEAP_SEG_SIZE must fit into type size_t. This code
27 * is in scm_init_storage() and alloc_some_heap() in sys.c
29 * If SCM_INIT_HEAP_SIZE can be allocated initially, the heap will grow by
30 * SCM_EXPHEAP(scm_heap_size) when more heap is needed.
32 * SCM_MIN_HEAP_SEG_SIZE is minimum size of heap to accept when more heap
38 * Heap size 45000 and 40% min yield gives quick startup and no extra
39 * heap allocation. Having higher values on min yield may lead to
40 * large heaps, especially if code behaviour is varying its
41 * maximum consumption between different freelists.
45 These values used to be global C variables. However, they're also
46 available through the environment, and having a double interface is
47 confusing. Now they're #defines --hwn.
