Is cmem "the way to go" to unify the memory managers of a dynamic 
library and the calling application ? (There seem more advanced free 
alternatives written for Delphi, that might be usable with FPC.)

Will just "using" cmem both in the main program and in the library 
automatically unify the memory managers ?



http://wiki.freepascal.org/Multithreaded_Application_Tutorial states:

   cmem,  // the c memory manager is on some systems much faster for multi-threading

and

You can not use the -gh switch with the/cmem/  unit. The -gh switch uses the heaptrc unit,
which extends the heap manager. Therefore the*heaptrc*  unit must be used*after*  the*cmem*  unit.



Should the FPC memory manager not be more optimized for FPC code then cmem ?
