<mathematics> 1. Bigger than any natural number. There are various formal set definitions in set theory: a set X is infinite if (i) There is a bijection between X and a proper subset of X. (ii) There is an injection from the set N of natural numbers to X. (iii) There is an injection from each natural number n to X. These definitions are not necessarily equivalent unless we accept the Axiom of Choice. 2. The length of a line extended indefinitely. See also infinite loop, infinite set. [Jargon File] (1995-03-29)

Slab allocation

Slab allocation is a memory management mechanism intended for the efficient memory allocation of objects. In comparison with earlier mechanisms, it reduces fragmentation caused by allocations and deallocations. This technique is used for retaining allocated memory containing a data object of a certain type for reuse upon subsequent allocations of objects of the same type. It is analogous to an object pool, but only applies to memory, not other resources.

Slab allocation was first introduced in the Solaris 2.4 kernel by Jeff Bonwick. It is now widely used by many Unix and Unix-like operating systems including FreeBSD and Linux.
