/**
\defgroup lubheap "Little Useful Bits Heap" Library
@{
\section Overview
This library can be linked with executables to override the standard memory
management provided by the system libraries. This may provide a
performance and debugging advantage.

The implementation uses the \ref lub_heap component to control system memory
and hence provides all the features available within that memory manager.
(including leak detection)

\section VxWorks
Replaces the memPartLib.o, memLib.o and memShow.o found in the
libos.a library archive.

\subsection memlib memLib.o functions

calloc, cfree, memFindMax, memInit, memLibInit, memOptionsSet,
memPartFindMax, memPartOptionsSet, memPartRealloc, memalign, realloc, valloc


\subsection mempartlib memPartLib.o functions

free, malloc, memAddToPool, memPartAddToPool, memPartAlignedAlloc,
memPartAlloc, memPartBlockIsValid, memPartCreate, memPartFree,
memPartInit, memPartLibInit


\subsection memshow memShow.o functions

memShow, memPartInfoGet, memParShow


\section posix POSIX
Replaces the dynamic memory functionality found in the libc.a
library archive.

This implementation relies on the sbrk() function to provide memory
chunks to feed the standard heap.

\subsection Functions

calloc, cfree, free, malloc, memalign, realloc, valloc



\section Performance
Running the unittests with this library provides the following comparisons on
some test machines:

\section i686-pc-cygwin
For some reason the native memory management under cygwin is quicker. My suspcion is that there is an overhead in the
sbrk() call via the cygwin sub-system which slows the lubheap implementation...
