Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

memory-man

This npm package streamlines memory management to node.js from C++.

Do not use this for production.

Node's V8 would probably be faster in bigger scales.

Installing

Type this command line to install the Memory Man:

npm install memory-man

Now you can import it from your JavaScript code:

import MemoryMan from "memory-man";
// Or
const MemoryMan = require("memory-man");

Now you can access the functions of the Memory Man!

const {malloc, calloc, realloc, free, address_set, address_get} = MemoryMan;

malloc(size)

This method is used to dynamically allocate a block of memory on the heap (a region of a computer's memory) during program execution.

const address = malloc(10); // Will allocate 10 bytes in memory!
console.log(`The address of the allocated memory is: ${address}`);

free(address)

This method is used to release the memory back to the heap so that it can be reused by the system or other parts of your program.

free(address); // Now the address is erased!

calloc(count, size)

This method is does nearly the same thing as malloc, but unlike malloc this method will initialize the allocated memory to zero.

const address = calloc(1, 10); // count, size
console.log(`The address of the allocated memory is: ${address}`);

realloc(address, size)

This method is used to change the size of a previously allocated block of memory.

realloc(address, 100); // The allocated memory has been resized to 100!

address_set(address, index, value)

This method is used to set an element of an address in memory.

address_set(address, 0, 10);

address_get(address, index)

This method is used to get an element of an address in memory.

console.log(address_get(address, 0)); // 10
