Short: sorts exec-memorylists
MemoryPerform V1.000
WHAT IS IT ?
MemoryPerform is a small tool that tries to reduce the
fragmentation of your memory and to speed up the memory-handling
in general.
How does this work? First of all, MemoryPerform scans the
MemoryChunkLists of Exec and deletes all entries that are smaller
than 16 bytes. (After that, you might have about 100 Hunks less,
which will speed up AllocMem()!)
Next, MemoryPerform moves the smallest chunks to the top of the
list. The advantage is that now AllocMem() - which simply browses
though the list and takes the first memblock that is larger or
equal the requested size - won't split up a 500k-block when only
200 bytes are needed.
