Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only! Grab it Explore efficient concurrent memory management techniques in C++ through this CppCon conference talk. Delve into the challenges of memory management in concurrent code and discover high-level abstractions like smart pointers and deferred reclamation techniques. Learn about recent library solutions that combine the advantages of various techniques, offering the ease of use of smart pointers with the performance of deferred reclamation. Examine the tradeoffs between existing methods, including atomic shared pointers and advanced techniques like hazard-pointers and RCU. Gain insights into implementing scalable concurrent code with performance comparable to expert-written code using simple abstractions. Follow along as the speaker discusses recent library interfaces, efficient implementation techniques, and explores their performance in depth.
