Method and apparatus for reducing heap size through adaptive object representation

摘要: Methods and apparatus for creating compressed versions of regular objects are disclosed. According to one aspect the present invention, a method version an object that stores first representation set data on heap structure object-based computing system includes determining when is suitable compression. If compressible, it form second data, portion memory allocated structure. The substantially smaller than occupied by object. Finally, writing into memory. In embodiment, resetting pointer identifies identify memory, removing from
