Abstract
The paper presents methods for instrumentation and measurement of applications' memory allocation behavior over time. It provides some background about possible performance problems related to memory allocation as well as to memory allocator libraries. Then, different methods for data acquisition and representation are discussed. Finally, memory allocation tracing integrated in VampirTrace is demonstrated with a real-world HPC example application from aerodynamical simulation and optimization.
