+// Simple allocator for pieces of a memory block that may be persistent |
+// to some storage or shared across multiple processes. |
+// |
+// This class provides for thread-secure (i.e. safe against other threads |
+// or processes that may be compromised and thus have malicious intent) |
+// allocation of memory within a designated block and also a mechanism by |
+// which other threads can learn of these allocations. |
+// |
+// There is (currently) no way to release an allocated block of data because |
+// doing so would risk invalidating pointers held by other processes and |
+// greatly complicate the allocation algorithm. |
+// |
+// Construction of this object can accept new, clean (i.e. zeroed) memory |
+// or previously initialized memory. In the first case, construction must |
+// be allowed to complete before letting other allocators attach to the same |
+// segment. In other words, don't share the segment until at least one |
+// allocator has been attached to it. |
+// |
+// It should be noted that memory doesn't need to actually have zeros written |
+// throughout; it just needs to read as zero until something diffferent is |
+// written to a location. This is an important distinction as it supports the |
+// use-case of non-pinned memory, such as from a demand-allocated region by |
+// the OS or a memory-mapped file that auto-grows from a starting size of zero. |
