mm-go
A Go library providing manual memory management and manually managed data structures via CGO for performance-critical applications.
What is mm-go?
mm-go is a Go library that provides manual memory management capabilities, allowing developers to bypass the garbage collector for performance-critical applications. It offers allocators and data structures that operate outside Go's GC, enabling fine-grained control over memory allocation and deallocation to reduce latency and overhead.
Go developers working on high-performance systems, game engines, real-time applications, or any scenario where garbage collection pauses are unacceptable and manual memory control is required.
Developers choose mm-go when they need to eliminate GC overhead in performance-sensitive Go code, offering up to 10x speed improvements for pointer-heavy workloads and providing C-like memory control without leaving the Go ecosystem.
