There are a lot of allocators to choose from, so this is far from being a comprehensive list;

*[https://github.com/blanham/liballoc/ liballoc] - Excellent allocator that was originally a part of the Spoon Operating System and designed to be plugged into hobby OS's.

*[http://goog-perftools.sourceforge.net/doc/tcmalloc.html TCMalloc] Thread-Caching Malloc. An experimental scalable allocator.

*[http://www.nedprod.com/programs/portable/nedmalloc/ nedmalloc] A very fast and very scalable allocator. These two properties have made it somewhat popular in multi-threaded video games as an alternative to the default provided allocator.
