Fast Memory Manager 4.993
Description:
A fast replacement memory manager for Embarcadero Delphi Win32 applications
that scales well under multi-threaded usage, is not prone to memory
fragmentation, and supports shared memory without the use of external .DLL
files.
Homepage:
Version 4: https://github.com/pleriche/FastMM4
Version 5: https://github.com/pleriche/FastMM5
Advantages:
- Fast
- Low overhead. FastMM is designed for an average of 5% and maximum of 10%
overhead per block.
- Supports up to 3GB of user mode address space under Windows 32-bit and 4GB
under Windows 64-bit. Add the "$SetPEFlags $20" option (in curly braces)
to your .dpr to enable this.
- Highly aligned memory blocks. Can be configured for either 8-byte or 16-byte
alignment.
- Good scaling under multi-threaded applications
- Intelligent reallocations. Avoids slow memory move operations through
not performing unneccesary downsizes and by having a minimum percentage
block size growth factor when an in-place block upsize is not possible.
- Resistant to address space fragmentation
- No external DLL required when sharing memory between the application and
external libraries (provided both use this memory manager)
- Optionally reports memory leaks on program shutdown. (This check can be set
to be performed only if Delphi is currently running on the machine, so end
users won't be bothered by the error message.)
- Supports Delphi 4 (or later), C++ Builder 4 (or later), Kylix 3.
Usage:
Delphi:
Place this unit as the very first unit under the "uses" section in your
project's .dpr file. When sharing memory between an application and a DLL
(e.g. when passing a long string or dynamic array to a DLL function), both the
main application and the DLL must be compiled using this memory manager (with
the required conditional defines set). There are some conditional defines
(inside FastMM4Options.inc) that may be used to tweak the memory manager. To
enable support for a user mode address space greater than 2GB you will have to
use the EditBin* tool to set the LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE flag in the EXE header.
This informs Windows x64 or Windows 32-bit (with the /3GB option set) that the
application supports an address space larger than 2GB (up to 4GB). In Delphi 6
and later you can also specify this flag through the compiler directive
{$SetPEFlags $20}
*The EditBin tool ships with the MS Visual C compiler.
C++ Builder 6:
Refer to the instructions inside FastMM4BCB.cpp.

Disclaimer:
FastMM has been tested extensively with both single and multithreaded
applications on various hardware platforms, but unfortunately I am not in a
position to make any guarantees. Use it at your own risk.
Acknowledgements (for version 4):
- Eric Grange for his RecyclerMM on which the earlier versions of FastMM were
based. RecyclerMM was what inspired me to try and write my own memory
manager back in early 2004.
- Primoz Gabrijelcic for several bugfixes and enhancements.
- Dennis Christensen for his tireless efforts with the Fastcode project:
helping to develop, optimize and debug the growing Fastcode library.
- JiYuan Xie for implementing the leak reporting code for C++ Builder.
- Sebastian Zierer for implementing the OS X support.
- Pierre Y. for his suggestions regarding the extension of the memory leak
checking options.
- Hanspeter Widmer for his suggestion to have an option to display install and
uninstall debug messages and moving options to a separate file, as well as
the new usage tracker.
- Anders Isaksson and Greg for finding and identifying the "DelphiIsRunning"
bug under Delphi 5.
- Francois Malan for various suggestions and bug reports.
- Craig Peterson for helping me identify the cache associativity issues that
could arise due to medium blocks always being an exact multiple of 256 bytes.
Also for various other bug reports and enhancement suggestions.
- Jarek Karciarz, Vladimir Ulchenko (Vavan) and Bob Gonder for their help in
implementing the BCB support.
- Ben Taylor for his suggestion to display the object class of all memory
leaks.
- Jean Marc Eber and Vincent Mahon (the Memcheck guys) for the call stack
trace code and also the method used to catch virtual method calls on freed
objects.
- Nahan Hyn for the suggestion to be able to enable or disable memory leak
reporting through a global variable (the "ManualLeakReportingControl"
option.)
- Leonel Togniolli for various suggestions with regard to enhancing the bug
tracking features of FastMM and other helpful advice.
- Joe Bain and Leonel Togniolli for the workaround to QC#10922 affecting
compilation under Delphi 2005.
- Robert Marquardt for the suggestion to make localisation of FastMM easier by
having all string constants together.
- Simon Kissel and Fikret Hasovic for their help in implementing Kylix support.
- Matthias Thoma, Petr Vones, Robert Rossmair and the rest of the JCL team for
their debug info library used in the debug info support DLL and also the
code used to check for a valid call site in the "raw" stack trace code.
- Andreas Hausladen for the suggestion to use an external DLL to enable the
reporting of debug information.
- Alexander Tabakov for various good suggestions regarding the debugging
facilities of FastMM.
- M. Skloff for some useful suggestions and bringing to my attention some
compiler warnings.
- Martin Aignesberger for the code to use madExcept instead of the JCL library
inside the debug info support DLL.
- Diederik and Dennis Passmore for the suggestion to be able to register
expected leaks.
- Dario Tiraboschi and Mark Gebauer for pointing out the problems that occur
when range checking and complete boolean evaluation is turned on.
- Arthur Hoornweg for notifying me of the image base being incorrect for
borlndmm.dll.
- Theo Carr-Brion and Hanspeter Widmer for finding the false alarm error
message "Block Header Has Been Corrupted" bug in FullDebugMode.
- Danny Heijl for reporting the compiler error in "release" mode.
- Omar Zelaya for reporting the BCB support regression bug.
- Dan Miser for various good suggestions, e.g. not logging expected leaks to
file, enhancements the stack trace and messagebox functionality, etc.
- Arjen de Ruijter for fixing the bug in GetMemoryLeakType that caused it
to not properly detect expected leaks registered by class when in
"FullDebugMode".
- Aleksander Oven for reporting the installation problem when trying to use
FastMM in an application together with libraries that all use runtime
packages.
- Kristofer Skaug for reporting the bug that sometimes causes the leak report
to be shown, even when all the leaks have been registered as expected leaks.
Also for some useful enhancement suggestions.
- Günther Schoch for the "RequireDebuggerPresenceForLeakReporting" option.

Change log:
Version 1.00 (28 June 2004):
- First version (called PSDMemoryManager). Based on RecyclerMM (free block
stack approach) by Eric Grange.
Version 2.00 (3 November 2004):
- Complete redesign and rewrite from scratch. Name changed to FastMM to
reflect this fact. Uses a linked-list approach. Is faster, has less memory
overhead, and will now catch most bad pointers on FreeMem calls.
Version 3.00 (1 March 2005):
- Another rewrite. Reduced the memory overhead by: (a) not having a separate
memory area for the linked list of free blocks (uses space inside free
blocks themselves) (b) batch managers are allocated as part of chunks (c)
block size lookup table size reduced. This should make FastMM more CPU
cache friendly.
Version 4.00 (7 June 2005):
- Yet another rewrite. FastMM4 is in fact three memory managers in one: Small
blocks (up to a few KB) are managed through the binning model in the same
way as previous versions, medium blocks (from a few KB up to approximately
256K) are allocated in a linked-list fashion, and large blocks are grabbed
directly from the system through VirtualAlloc. This 3-layered design allows
very fast operation with the most frequently used block sizes (small
blocks), while also minimizing fragmentation and imparting significant
overhead savings with blocks larger than a few KB.
Version 4.01 (8 June 2005):
- Added the options "RequireDebugInfoForLeakReporting" and
"RequireIDEPresenceForLeakReporting" as suggested by Pierre Y.
- Fixed the "DelphiIsRunning" function not working under Delphi 5, and
consequently no leak checking. (Reported by Anders Isaksson and Greg.)
Version 4.02 (8 June 2005):
- Fixed the compilation error when both the "AssumeMultiThreaded" and
"CheckHeapForCorruption options were set. (Reported by Francois Malan.)
Version 4.03 (9 June 2005):
- Added descriptive error messages when FastMM4 cannot be installed because
another MM has already been installed or memory has already been allocated.
Version 4.04 (13 June 2005):
- Added a small fixed offset to the size of medium blocks (previously always
exact multiples of 256 bytes). This makes performance problems due to CPU
cache associativity limitations much less likely. (Reported by Craig
Peterson.)
Version 4.05 (17 June 2005):
- Added the Align16Bytes option. Disable this option to drop the 16 byte
alignment restriction and reduce alignment to 8 bytes for the smallest
block sizes. Disabling Align16Bytes should lower memory consumption at the
cost of complicating the use of aligned SSE move instructions. (Suggested
by Craig Peterson.)
- Added a support unit for C++ Builder 6 - Add FastMM4BCB.cpp and
FastMM4.pas to your BCB project to use FastMM instead of the RTL MM. Memory
leak checking is not supported because (unfortunately) once an MM is
installed under BCB you cannot uninstall it... at least not without
modifying the RTL code in exit.c or patching the RTL code runtime. (Thanks
to Jarek Karciarz, Vladimir Ulchenko and Bob Gonder.)
Version 4.06 (22 June 2005):
- Displays the class of all leaked objects on the memory leak report and also
tries to identify leaked long strings. Previously it only displayed the
sizes of all leaked blocks. (Suggested by Ben Taylor.)
- Added support for displaying the sizes of medium and large block memory
leaks. Previously it only displayed details for small block leaks.
Version 4.07 (22 June 2005):
- Fixed the detection of the class of leaked objects not working under
Windows 98/Me.
Version 4.08 (27 June 2005):
- Added a BorlndMM.dpr project to allow you to build a borlndmm.dll that uses
FastMM4 instead of the default memory manager. You may replace the old
DLL in the Delphi \Bin directory to make the IDE use this memory manager
instead.
Version 4.09 (30 June 2005):
- Included a patch fix for the bug affecting replacement borlndmm.dll files
with Delphi 2005 (QC#14007). Compile the patch, close Delphi, and run it
once to patch your vclide90.bpl. You will now be able to use the
replacement borlndmm.dll to speed up the Delphi 2005 IDE as well.
Version 4.10 (7 July 2005):
- Due to QC#14070 ("Delphi IDE attempts to free memory after the shutdown
code of borlndmm.dll has been called"), FastMM cannot be uninstalled
safely when used inside a replacement borlndmm.dll for the IDE. Added a
conditional define "NeverUninstall" for this purpose.
- Added the "FullDebugMode" option to pad all blocks with a header and footer
to help you catch memory overwrite bugs in your applications. All blocks
returned to freemem are also zeroed out to help catch bugs involving the
use of previously freed blocks. Also catches attempts at calling virtual
methods of freed objects provided the block in question has not been reused
since the object was freed. Displays stack traces on error to aid debugging.
- Added the "LogErrorsToFile" option to log all errors to a text file in the
same folder as the application.
- Added the "ManualLeakReportingControl" option (suggested by Nahan Hyn) to
enable control over whether the memory leak report should be done or not
via a global variable.
Version 4.11 (7 July 2005):
- Fixed a compilation error under Delphi 2005 due to QC#10922. (Thanks to Joe
Bain and Leonel Togniolli.)
- Fixed leaked object classes not displaying in the leak report in
"FullDebugMode".
Version 4.12 (8 July 2005):
- Moved all the string constants to one place to make it easier to do
translations into other languages. (Thanks to Robert Marquardt.)
- Added support for Kylix. Some functionality is currently missing: No
support for detecting the object class on leaks and also no MM sharing.
(Thanks to Simon Kissel and Fikret Hasovic).
Version 4.13 (11 July 2005):
- Added the FastMM_DebugInfo.dll support library to display debug info for
stack traces.
- Stack traces for the memory leak report is now logged to the log file in
"FullDebugMode".
Version 4.14 (14 July 2005):
- Fixed string leaks not being detected as such in "FullDebugMode". (Thanks
to Leonel Togniolli.)
- Fixed the compilation error in "FullDebugMode" when "LogErrorsToFile" is
not set. (Thanks to Leonel Togniolli.)
- Added a "Release" option to allow the grouping of various options and to
make it easier to make debug and release builds. (Thanks to Alexander
Tabakov.)
- Added a "HideMemoryLeakHintMessage" option to not display the hint below
the memory leak message. (Thanks to Alexander Tabakov.)
- Changed the fill character for "FullDebugMode" from zero to $80 to be able
to differentiate between invalid memory accesses using nil pointers to
invalid memory accesses using fields of freed objects. FastMM tries to
reserve the 64K block starting at $80800000 at startup to ensure that an
A/V will occur when this block is accessed. (Thanks to Alexander Tabakov.)
- Fixed some compiler warnings. (Thanks to M. Skloff)
- Fixed some display bugs in the memory leak report. (Thanks to Leonel
Togniolli.)
- Added a "LogMemoryLeakDetailToFile" option. Some applications leak a lot of
memory and can make the log file grow very large very quickly.
- Added the option to use madExcept instead of the JCL Debug library in the
debug info support DLL. (Thanks to Martin Aignesberger.)
- Added procedures "GetMemoryManagerState" and "GetMemoryMap" to retrieve
statistics about the current state of the memory manager and memory pool.
(A usage tracker form together with a demo is also available.)
Version 4.15 (14 July 2005):
- Fixed a false 4GB(!) memory leak reported in some instances.
Version 4.16 (15 July 2005):
- Added the "CatchUseOfFreedInterfaces" option to catch the use of interfaces
of freed objects. This option is not compatible with checking that a freed
block has not been modified, so enable this option only when hunting an
invalid interface reference. (Only relevant if "FullDebugMode" is set.)
- During shutdown FastMM now checks that all free blocks have not been
modified since being freed. (Only when "FullDebugMode" is set and
"CatchUseOfFreedInterfaces" is disabled.)
Version 4.17 (15 July 2005):
- Added the AddExpectedMemoryLeaks and RemoveExpectedMemoryLeaks procedures to
register/unregister expected leaks, thus preventing the leak report from
displaying if only expected leaks occurred. (Thanks to Diederik and Dennis
Passmore for the suggestion.) (Note: these functions were renamed in later
versions.)
- Fixed the "LogMemoryLeakDetailToFile" not logging memory leak detail to file
as it is supposed to. (Thanks to Leonel Togniolli.)
Version 4.18 (18 July 2005):
- Fixed some issues when range checking or complete boolean evaluation is
switched on. (Thanks to Dario Tiraboschi and Mark Gebauer.)
- Added the "OutputInstallUninstallDebugString" option to display a message when
FastMM is installed or uninstalled. (Thanks to Hanspeter Widmer.)
- Moved the options to a separate include file. (Thanks to Hanspeter Widmer.)
- Moved message strings to a separate file for easy translation.
Version 4.19 (19 July 2005):
- Fixed Kylix support that was broken in 4.14.
Version 4.20 (20 July 2005):
- Fixed a false memory overwrite report at shutdown in "FullDebugMode". If you
consistently got a "Block Header Has Been Corrupted" error message during
shutdown at address $xxxx0070 then it was probably a false alarm. (Thanks to
Theo Carr-Brion and Hanspeter Widmer.}
Version 4.21 (27 July 2005):
- Minor change to the block header flags to make it possible to immediately
tell whether a medium block is being used as a small block pool or not.
(Simplifies the leak checking and status reporting code.)
- Expanded the functionality around the management of expected memory leaks.
- Added the "ClearLogFileOnStartup" option. Deletes the log file during
initialization. (Thanks to M. Skloff.)
- Changed "OutputInstallUninstallDebugString" to use OutputDebugString instead
of MessageBox. (Thanks to Hanspeter Widmer.)
Version 4.22 (1 August 2005):
- Added a FastAllocMem function that avoids an unnecessary FillChar call with
large blocks.
- Changed large block resizing behavior to be a bit more conservative. Large
blocks will be downsized if the new size is less than half of the old size
(the threshold was a quarter previously).
Version 4.23 (6 August 2005):
- Fixed BCB6 support (Thanks to Omar Zelaya).
- Renamed "OutputInstallUninstallDebugString" to "UseOutputDebugString", and
added debug string output on memory leak or error detection.
Version 4.24 (11 August 2005):
- Added the "NoMessageBoxes" option to suppress the display of message boxes,
which is useful for services that should not be interrupted. (Thanks to Dan
Miser).
- Changed the stack trace code to return the line number of the caller and not
the line number of the return address. (Thanks to Dan Miser).
Version 4.25 (15 August 2005):
- Fixed GetMemoryLeakType not detecting expected leaks registered by class
when in "FullDebugMode". (Thanks to Arjen de Ruijter).
Version 4.26 (18 August 2005):
- Added a "UseRuntimePackages" option that allows FastMM to be used in a main
application together with DLLs that all use runtime packages. (Thanks to
Aleksander Oven.)
Version 4.27 (24 August 2005):
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused the leak report to be shown even though all
leaks were registered as expected leaks. (Thanks to Kristofer Skaug.)
Version 4.29 (30 September 2005):
- Added the "RequireDebuggerPresenceForLeakReporting" option to only display
the leak report if the application is run inside the IDE. (Thanks to Günther
Schoch.)
- Added the "ForceMMX" option, which when disabled will check the CPU for
MMX compatibility before using MMX. (Thanks to Jan Schlüter.)
- Added the module name to the title of error dialogs to more easily identify
which application caused the error. (Thanks to Kristofer Skaug.)
- Added an ASCII dump to the "FullDebugMode" memory dumps. (Thanks to Hallvard
Vassbotn.)
- Added the option "HideExpectedLeaksRegisteredByPointer" to suppress the
display and logging of expected memory leaks that were registered by pointer.
(Thanks to Dan Miser.) Leaks registered by size or class are often ambiguous,
so these expected leaks are always logged to file (in FullDebugMode) and are
never hidden from the leak display (only displayed if there is at least one
unexpected leak).
- Added a procedure "GetRegisteredMemoryLeaks" to return a list of all
registered memory leaks. (Thanks to Dan Miser.)
- Added the "RawStackTraces" option to perform "raw" stack traces, negating
the need for stack frames. This will usually result in more complete stack
traces in FullDebugMode error reports, but it is significantly slower.
(Thanks to Hallvard Vassbotn, Dan Miser and the JCL team.)
Version 4.31 (2 October 2005):
- Fixed the crash bug when both "RawStackTraces" and "FullDebugMode" were
enabled. (Thanks to Dan Miser and Mark Edington.)
Version 4.33 (6 October 2005):
- Added a header corruption check to all memory blocks that are identified as
leaks in FullDebugMode. This allows better differentiation between memory
pool corruption bugs and actual memory leaks.
- Fixed the stack overflow bug when using "RawStackTraces".
Version 4.35 (6 October 2005):
- Fixed a compilation error when the "NoMessageBoxes" option is set. (Thanks
to Paul Ishenin.)
- Before performing a "raw" stack trace, FastMM now checks whether exception
handling is in place. If exception handling is not in place FastMM falls
back to stack frame tracing. (Exception handling is required to handle the
possible A/Vs when reading invalid call addresses. Exception handling is
usually always available except when SysUtils hasn't been initialized yet or
after SysUtils has been finalized.)
Version 4.37 (8 October 2005):
- Fixed the missing call stack trace entry issue when dynamically loading DLLs.
(Thanks to Paul Ishenin.)
Version 4.39 (12 October 2005):
- Restored the performance with "RawStackTraces" enabled back to the level it
was in 4.35.
- Fixed the stack overflow error when using "RawStackTraces" that I thought I
had fixed in 4.31, but unfortunately didn't. (Thanks to Craig Peterson.)
Version 4.40 (13 October 2005):
- Improved "RawStackTraces" to have less incorrect extra entries. (Thanks to
Craig Peterson.)
- Added the Russian (by Paul Ishenin) and Afrikaans translations of
FastMM4Messages.pas.
Version 4.42 (13 October 2005):
- Fixed the compilation error when "CatchUseOfFreedInterfaces" is enabled.
(Thanks to Cristian Nicola.)
Version 4.44 (25 October 2005):
- Implemented a FastGetHeapStatus function in analogy with GetHeapStatus.
(Suggested by Cristian Nicola.)
- Shifted more of the stack trace code over to the support dll to allow third
party vendors to make available their own stack tracing and stack trace
logging facilities.
- Mathias Rauen (madshi) improved the support for madExcept in the debug info
support DLL. Thanks!
- Added support for BCB5. (Thanks to Roddy Pratt.)
- Added the Czech translation by Rene Mihula.
- Added the "DetectMMOperationsAfterUninstall" option. This will catch
attempts to use the MM after FastMM has been uninstalled, and is useful for
debugging.
Version 4.46 (26 October 2005):
- Renamed FastMM_DebugInfo.dll to FastMM_FullDebugMode.dll and made the
dependency on this library a static one. This solves a DLL unload order
problem when using FullDebugMode together with the replacement
borlndmm.dll. (Thanks to Bart van der Werf.)
- Added the Polish translation by Artur Redzko.
Version 4.48 (10 November 2005):
- Fixed class detection for objects leaked in dynamically loaded DLLs that
were relocated.
- Fabio Dell'Aria implemented support for EurekaLog in the FullDebugMode
support DLL. Thanks!
- Added the Spanish translation by JRG ("The Delphi Guy").
Version 4.49 (10 November 2005):
- Implemented support for installing replacement AllocMem and leak
registration mechanisms for Delphi/BCB versions that support it.
- Added support for Delphi 4. (Thanks to Justus Janssen.)
Version 4.50 (5 December 2005):
- Renamed the ReportMemoryLeaks global variable to ReportMemoryLeaksOnShutdown
to be more consistent with the Delphi 2006 memory manager.
- Improved the handling of large blocks. Large blocks can now consist of
several consecutive segments allocated through VirtualAlloc. This
significantly improves speed when frequently resizing large blocks, since
these blocks can now often be upsized in-place.
Version 4.52 (7 December 2005):
- Fixed the compilation error with Delphi 5. (Thanks to Vadim Lopushansky and
Charles Vinal for reporting the error.)
Version 4.54 (15 December 2005):
- Added the Brazilian Portuguese translation by Johni Jeferson Capeletto.
- Fixed the compilation error with BCB6. (Thanks to Kurt Fitzner.)
Version 4.56 (20 December 2005):
- Fixed the Kylix compilation problem. (Thanks to Michal Niklas.)
Version 4.58 (1 February 2006):
- Added the German translations by Thomas Speck and Uwe Queisser.
- Added the Indonesian translation by Zaenal Mutaqin.
- Added the Portuguese translation by Carlos Macao.
Version 4.60 (21 February 2006):
- Fixed a performance issue due to an unnecessary block move operation when
allocating a block in the range 1261-1372 bytes and then reallocating it in
the range 1373-1429 bytes twice. (Thanks to Michael Winter.)
- Added the Belarussian translation by dzmitry[li].
- Added the updated Spanish translation by Marcelo Montenegro.
- Added a new option "EnableSharingWithDefaultMM". This option allows FastMM
to be shared with the default MM of Delphi 2006. It is on by default, but
MM sharing has to be enabled otherwise it has no effect (refer to the
documentation for the "ShareMM" and "AttemptToUseSharedMM" options).
Version 4.62 (22 February 2006):
- Fixed a possible read access violation in the MoveX16LP routine when the
UseCustomVariableSizeMoveRoutines option is enabled. (Thanks to Jud Cole for
some great detective work in finding this bug.)
- Improved the downsizing behaviour of medium blocks to better correlate with
the reallocation behaviour of small blocks. This change reduces the number
of transitions between small and medium block types when reallocating blocks
in the 0.7K to 2.6K range. It cuts down on the number of memory move
operations and improves performance.
Version 4.64 (31 March 2006):
- Added the following functions for use with FullDebugMode (and added the
exports to the replacement BorlndMM.dll): SetMMLogFileName,
GetCurrentAllocationGroup, PushAllocationGroup, PopAllocationGroup and
LogAllocatedBlocksToFile. The purpose of these functions are to allow you to
identify and log related memory leaks while your application is still
running.
- Fixed a bug in the memory manager sharing mechanism affecting Windows
95/98/ME. (Thanks to Zdenek Vasku.)
Version 4.66 (9 May 2006):
- Added a hint comment in this file so that FastMM4Messages.pas will also be
backed up by GExperts. (Thanks to RB Winston.)
- Fixed a bug affecting large address space (> 2GB) support under
FullDebugMode. (Thanks to Thomas Schulz.)
Version 4.68 (3 July 2006):
- Added the Italian translation by Luigi Sandon.
- If FastMM is used inside a DLL it will now use the name of the DLL as base
for the log file name. (Previously it always used the name of the main
application executable file.)
- Fixed a rare A/V when both the FullDebugMode and RawStackTraces options were
enabled. (Thanks to Primoz Gabrijelcic.)
- Added the "NeverSleepOnThreadContention" option. This option may improve
performance if the ratio of the the number of active threads to the number
of CPU cores is low (typically < 2). This option is only useful for 4+ CPU
systems, it almost always hurts performance on single and dual CPU systems.
(Thanks to Werner Bochtler and Markus Beth.)
Version 4.70 (4 August 2006):
- Added the Simplified Chinese translation by JiYuan Xie.
- Added the updated Russian as well as the Ukrainian translation by Andrey
Shtukaturov.
- Fixed two bugs in the leak class detection code that would sometimes fail
to detect the class of leaked objects and strings, and report them as
'unknown'. (Thanks to Dimitry Timokhov)
Version 4.72 (24 September 2006):
- Fixed a bug that caused AllocMem to not clear blocks > 256K in
FullDebugMode. (Thanks to Paulo Moreno.)
Version 4.74 (9 November 2006):
- Fixed a bug in the segmented large block functionality that could lead to
an application freeze when upsizing blocks greater than 256K in a
multithreaded application (one of those "what the heck was I thinking?"
type bugs).
Version 4.76 (12 January 2007):
- Changed the RawStackTraces code in the FullDebugMode DLL
to prevent it from modifying the Windows "GetLastError" error code.
(Thanks to Primoz Gabrijelcic.)
- Fixed a threading issue when the "CheckHeapForCorruption" option was
enabled, but the "FullDebugMode" option was disabled. (Thanks to Primoz
Gabrijelcic.)
- Removed some unnecessary startup code when the MM sharing mechanism is
disabled. (Thanks to Vladimir Bochkarev.)
- In FullDebugMode leaked blocks would sometimes be reported as belonging to
the class "TFreedObject" if they were allocated but never used. Such blocks
will now be reported as "unknown". (Thanks to Francois Malan.)
- In recent versions the replacement borlndmm.dll created a log file (when
enabled) that used the "borlndmm" prefix instead of the application name.
It is now fixed to use the application name, however if FastMM is used
inside other DLLs the name of those DLLs will be used. (Thanks to Bart van
der Werf.)
- Added a "FastMMVersion" constant. (Suggested by Loris Luise.)
- Fixed an issue with error message boxes not displaying under certain
configurations. (Thanks to J.W. de Bokx.)
- FastMM will now display only one error message at a time. If many errors
occur in quick succession, only the first error will be shown (but all will
be logged). This avoids a stack overflow with badly misbehaved programs.
(Thanks to Bart van der Werf.)
- Added a LoadDebugDLLDynamically option to be used in conjunction with
FullDebugMode. In this mode FastMM_FullDebugMode.dll is loaded dynamically.
If the DLL cannot be found, stack traces will not be available. (Thanks to
Rene Mihula.)
Version 4.78 (1 March 2007):
- The MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY constant that is used when displaying messages
boxes since 4.76 is not defined under Kylix, and the source would thus not
compile. That constant is now defined. (Thanks to Werner Bochtler.)
- Moved the medium block locking code that was duplicated in several places
to a subroutine to reduce code size. (Thanks to Hallvard Vassbotn.)
- Fixed a bug in the leak registration code that sometimes caused registered
leaks to be reported erroneously. (Thanks to Primoz Gabrijelcic.)
- Added the NoDebugInfo option (on by default) that suppresses the generation
of debug info for the FastMM4.pas unit. This will prevent the integrated
debugger from stepping into the memory manager. (Thanks to Primoz
Gabrijelcic.)
- Increased the default stack trace depth in FullDebugMode from 9 to 10 to
ensure that the Align16Bytes setting works in FullDebugMode. (Thanks to
Igor Lindunen.)
- Updated the Czech translation. (Thanks to Rene Mihula.)
Version 4.84 (7 July 2008):
- Added the Romanian translation. (Thanks to Ionut Muntean.)
- Optimized the GetMemoryMap procedure to improve speed.
- Added the GetMemoryManagerUsageSummary function that returns a summary of
the GetMemoryManagerState call. (Thanks to Hallvard Vassbotn.)
- Added the French translation. (Thanks to Florent Ouchet.)
- Added the "AlwaysAllocateTopDown" FullDebugMode option to help with
catching bad pointer arithmetic code in an address space > 2GB. This option
is enabled by default.
- Added the "InstallOnlyIfRunningInIDE" option. Enable this option to
only install FastMM as the memory manager when the application is run
inside the Delphi IDE. This is useful when you want to deploy the same EXE
that you use for testing, but only want the debugging features active on
development machines. When this option is enabled and the application is
not being run inside the IDE, then the default Delphi memory manager will
be used (which, since Delphi 2006, is FastMM without FullDebugMode.) This
option is off by default.
- Added the "FullDebugModeInIDE" option. This is a convenient shorthand for
enabling FullDebugMode, InstallOnlyIfRunningInIDE and
LoadDebugDLLDynamically. This causes FastMM to be used in FullDebugMode
when the application is being debugged on development machines, and the
default memory manager when the same executable is deployed. This allows
the debugging and deployment of an application without having to compile
separate executables. This option is off by default.
- Added a ScanMemoryPoolForCorruptions procedure that checks the entire
memory pool for corruptions and raises an exception if one is found. It can
be called at any time, but is only available in FullDebugMode. (Thanks to
Marcus Mönnig.)
- Added a global variable "FullDebugModeScanMemoryPoolBeforeEveryOperation".
When this variable is set to true and FullDebugMode is enabled, then the
entire memory pool is checked for consistency before every GetMem, FreeMem
and ReallocMem operation. An "Out of Memory" error is raised if a
corruption is found (and this variable is set to false to prevent recursive
errors). This obviously incurs a massive performance hit, so enable it only
when hunting for elusive memory corruption bugs. (Thanks to Marcus Mönnig.)
- Fixed a bug in AllocMem that caused the FPU stack to be shifted by one
position.
- Changed the default for option "EnableMMX" to false, since using MMX may
cause unexpected behaviour in code that passes parameters on the FPU stack
(like some "compiler magic" routines, e.g. VarFromReal).
- Removed the "EnableSharingWithDefaultMM" option. This is now the default
behaviour and cannot be disabled. (FastMM will always try to share memory
managers between itself and the default memory manager when memory manager
sharing is enabled.)
- Introduced a new memory manager sharing mechanism based on memory mapped
files. This solves compatibility issues with console and service
applications. This sharing mechanism currently runs in parallel with the
old mechanism, but the old mechanism can be disabled by undefining
"EnableBackwardCompatibleMMSharing" in FastMM4Options.inc.
- Fixed the recursive call error when the EnableMemoryLeakReporting option
is disabled and an attempt is made to register a memory leak under Delphi
2006 or later. (Thanks to Thomas Schulz.)
- Added a global variable "SuppressMessageBoxes" to enable or disable
messageboxes at runtime. (Thanks to Craig Peterson.)
- Added the leak reporting code for C++ Builder, as well as various other
C++ Builder bits written by JiYuan Xie. (Thank you!)
- Added the new Usage Tracker written by Hanspeter Widmer. (Thank you!)
Version 4.86 (31 July 2008):
- Tweaked the string detection algorithm somewhat to be less strict, and
allow non-class leaks to be more often categorized as strings.
- Fixed a compilation error under Delphi 5.
- Made LogAllocatedBlocksToFile and ScanMemoryPoolForCorruptions thread
safe. (Thanks to Francois Piette.)
Version 4.88 (13 August 2008):
- Fixed compiler warnings in NoOpRegisterExpectedMemoryLeak and
NoOpUnRegisterExpectedMemoryLeak. (Thanks to Michael Rabatscher.)
- Added the Simplified Chinese translation of FastMM4Options.inc by
QianYuan Wang. (Thank you!)
- Included the updated C++ Builder files with support for BCB6 without
update 4 applied. (Submitted by JiYuan Xie. Thanks!)
- Fixed a compilation error under Delphi 5.
- Made LogAllocatedBlocksToFile and ScanMemoryPoolForCorruptions thread
safe - for real this time. (Thanks to Francois Piette.)
Version 4.90 (9 September 2008):
- Added logging of the thread ID when capturing and displaying stack
traces. (Suggested by Allen Bauer and Mark Edington.)
- Fixed a Delphi 5 compiler error under FullDebugMode. (Thanks to Maurizio
Lotauro and Christian-W. Budde.)
- Changed a default setting in FastMM4Options.inc: RawStackTraces is now
off by default due to the high number of support requests I receive with
regards to the false postives it may cause. I recommend compiling debug
builds of applications with the "Stack Frames" option enabled.
- Fixed a compilation error under Kylix. (Thanks to Werner Bochtler.)
- Official support for Delphi 2009.
Version 4.92 (25 November 2008):
- Added the DisableLoggingOfMemoryDumps option under FullDebugMode. When
this option is set, memory dumps will not be logged for memory leaks or
errors. (Thanks to Patrick van Logchem.)
- Exposed the class and string type detection code in the interface section
for use in application code (if required). (Requested by Patrick van
Logchem.)
- Fixed a bug in SetMMLogFileName that could cause the log file name to be
set incorrectly.
- Added BCB4 support. (Thanks to Norbert Spiegel.)
- Included the updated Czech translation by Rene Mihula.
- When FastMM raises an error due to a freed block being modified, it now
logs detail about which bytes in the block were modified.
Version 4.94 (28 August 2009):
- Added the DoNotInstallIfDLLMissing option that prevents FastMM from
installing itself if the FastMM_FullDebugMode.dll library is not
available. (Only applicable when FullDebugMode and LoadDebugDLLDynamically
are both enabled.) This is useful when the same executable will be used for
both debugging and deployment - when the debug support DLL is available
FastMM will be installed in FullDebugMode, and otherwise the default memory
manager will be used.
- Added the FullDebugModeWhenDLLAvailable option that combines the
FullDebugMode, LoadDebugDLLDynamically and DoNotInstallIfDLLMissing options.
- Re-enabled RawStackTraces by default. The frame based stack traces (even
when compiling with stack frames enabled) are generally too incomplete.
- Improved the speed of large block operations under FullDebugMode: Since
large blocks are never reused, there is no point in clearing them before
and after use (so it does not do that anymore).
- If an error occurs in FullDebugMode and FastMM is unable to append to the
log file, it will attempt to write to a log file of the same name in the
"My Documents" folder. This feature is helpful when the executable resides
in a read-only location and the default log file, which is derived from the
executable name, would thus not be writeable.
- Added support for controlling the error log file location through an
environment variable. If the 'FastMMLogFilePath' environment variable is
set then any generated error logs will be written to the specified folder
instead of the default location (which is the same folder as the
application).
- Improved the call instruction detection code in the FastMM_FullDebugMode
library. (Thanks to the JCL team.)
- Improved the string leak detection and reporting code. (Thanks to Uwe
Schuster.)
- New FullDebugMode feature: Whenever FreeMem or ReallocMem is called, FastMM
will check that the block was actually allocated through the same FastMM
instance. This is useful for tracking down memory manager sharing issues.
- Compatible with Delphi 2010.
Version 4.96 (31 August 2010):
- Reduced the minimum block size to 4 bytes from the previous value of 12
bytes (only applicable to 8 byte alignment). This reduces memory usage if
the application allocates many blocks <= 4 bytes in size.
- Added colour-coded change indication to the FastMM usage tracker, making
it easier to spot changes in the memory usage grid. (Thanks to Murray
McGowan.)
- Added the SuppressFreeMemErrorsInsideException FullDebugMode option: If
FastMM encounters a problem with a memory block inside the FullDebugMode
FreeMem handler then an "invalid pointer operation" exception will usually
be raised. If the FreeMem occurs while another exception is being handled
(perhaps in the try.. finally code) then the original exception will be
lost. With this option set FastMM will ignore errors inside FreeMem when an
exception is being handled, thus allowing the original exception to
propagate. This option is on by default. (Thanks to Michael Hieke.)
- Fixed Windows 95 FullDebugMode support that was broken in 4.94. (Thanks to
Richard Bradbrook.)
- Fixed a bug affecting GetMemoryMap performance and accuracy of measurements
above 2GB if a large address space is not enabled for the project. (Thanks
to Michael Hieke.)
- Added the FullDebugModeRegisterAllAllocsAsExpectedMemoryLeak boolean flag.
When set, all allocations are automatically registered as expected memory
leaks. Only available in FullDebugMode. (Thanks to Brian Cook.)
- Compatible with Delphi XE.
Version 4.97 (30 September 2010):
- Fixed a crash bug (that crept in in 4.96) that may manifest itself when
resizing a block to 4 bytes or less.
- Added the UseSwitchToThread option. Set this option to call SwitchToThread
instead of sitting in a "busy waiting" loop when a thread contention
occurs. This is used in conjunction with the NeverSleepOnThreadContention
option, and has no effect unless NeverSleepOnThreadContention is also
defined. This option may improve performance with many CPU cores and/or
threads of different priorities. Note that the SwitchToThread API call is
only available on Windows 2000 and later. (Thanks to Zach Saw.)
Version 4.98 (23 September 2011):
- Added the FullDebugModeCallBacks define which adds support for memory
manager event callbacks. This allows the application to be notified of
memory allocations, frees and reallocations as they occur. (Thanks to
Jeroen Pluimers.)
- Added security options ClearMemoryBeforeReturningToOS and
AlwaysClearFreedMemory to force the clearing of memory blocks after being
freed. This could possibly provide some protection against information
theft, but at a significant performance penalty. (Thanks to Andrey
Sozonov.)
- Shifted the code in the initialization section to a procedure
RunInitializationCode. This allows the startup code to be called before
InitUnits, which is required by some software protection tools.
- Added support for Delphi XE2 (Windows 32-bit and Windows 64-bit platforms
only).
Version 4.99 (6 November 2011):
- Fixed crashes in the 64-bit BASM codepath when more than 4GB of memory is
allocated.
- Fixed bad record alignment under 64-bit that affected performance.
- Fixed compilation errors with some older compilers.
Version 4.991 (3 September 2012)
- Added the LogMemoryManagerStateToFile call. This call logs a summary of
the memory manager state to file: The total allocated memory, overhead,
efficiency, and a breakdown of allocated memory by class and string type.
This call may be useful to catch objects that do not necessarily leak, but
do linger longer than they should.
- OS X support added by Sebastian Zierer
- Compatible with Delphi XE3
Version 4.992 (21 October 2016)
- OS X full debug mode added by Sebastian Zierer
- Included the average block size in the memory state log file. (Thanks to
Hallvard Vassbotn)
- Support added for Free Pascal's OS X and Linux targets, both i386 and
x86-64. (Thanks to Zoë Peterson - some fixes by Arnaud Bouchez)
- Added the LogLockContention option which may be used to track down areas
in the application that lead to frequent lock contentions in the memory
manager. (Primoz Gabrijelcic)
- Support for release stacks added by Primoz Gabrijelcic. Define
"UseReleaseStack" to use this new feature: If a block cannot be released
immediately during a FreeMem call the block will added to a list of blocks
that will be freed later, either in the background cleanup thread or during
the next call to FreeMem.
Version 4.993 (10 August 2021)
- Added some "address space slack" under FullDebugMode. This reserves a
block of address space on startup (currently 5MB) that is released just
before the first time an EOutOfMemory exception is raised, allowing some
GetMem calls following the initial EOutOfMemory to succeed. This allows
the application to perform any error logging and other shutdown operations
successfully that would have failed it the address space was actually
completely exhausted. (Under FullDebugMode address space is never released
back to the operating system so once the address space has been exhausted
there is very little room to manoeuvre.)
- Added the RestrictDebugDLLLoadPath option to only load the debug DLL from
the host module directory.
- Performance and other enhancements to the call stack generation. (Thanks to
Andreas Hausladen.)
- Added FastMM artwork. (Thanks to Jim McKeeth.)
- Added the FastMM_GetInstallationState function: Allows determination of
whether FastMM is installed or not, and if not whether the default memory
manager is in use or a different third party memory manager.
