Memory Manager (MEM)

The memory manager is a simple memory allocator like the Unix malloc package, with enhancements to simplify debugging. It is used by all modules that need local memory. Unlike the database manager (DB), the memory manager does not allocate memory that can be accessed on other hosts on the network. In fact, the database manager uses the memory module to allocate local memory, and adds a network transport layer on top of it.
