[cfe-dev] RFC: Replacing the default CRT allocator on Windows
...le calls, you can do finer grained leak detection than checking what remains when the program exits. Debug CRT lets you hook all of the malloc calls if you want, so you can extend it for your own types of tracking and bug detection. But I don't think that feature is often used. Windows's Appverifier is cool and powerful. I cannot remember for sure, but I think some of its features might depend on the Debug CRT. One thing it can do is simulate allocation failures so you can test your program's recovery code, but most programs nowadays assume memory allocation never fails and will just c...

For release builds, I think this is fine. However for debug builds, the Windows allocator provides a lot of built-in functionality for debugging memory issues that I would be very sad to lose. Therefore, I would request that: 1. This be added as a configuration option to either select the new allocator or the windows allocator 2. The Windows allocator be used by default in debug builds
