Hi Guillaume

While searching for a redis ppa I found yours and another one by chris lea, I noticed that chris’s ppa redis has ” jemalloc 3.1″ as a dependency which is a scalable malloc implementation

I’m curious as to why your redis-server doesn’t depend on jemalloc and what are the benefits of it?

Thanks

@Jason : Redis from Dotdeb already uses Jemalloc :

$ redis-cli info |grep mem_allocator
mem_allocator:jemalloc-3.0.0

It’s the version that is bundled with Redis. That’s why it doesn’t involve a Debian dependency to a system jemalloc library.
