Function check_allocator_optimization

pub fn check_allocator_optimization() -> (bool, Option<String>)

Check if current allocator is optimal for current environment

Compares currently used allocator with hardware environment recommended allocator, determining if the best allocator has already been selected. Used for performance optimization checks and configuration validation.

Return Value

Returns a tuple (bool, Option<String>):

• (true, None) - Current allocator is already optimal
• (false, Some(suggestion)) - Current allocator is not optimal, includes optimization suggestion

Usage

• Performance audit - Check if application uses optimal allocator
• Environment validation - Confirm allocator configuration in deployment environment
• Optimization suggestions - Get specific allocator optimization recommendations
• Monitoring integration - Integrate into monitoring systems to check configuration drift

Examples

use auto_allocator;

let (is_optimal, suggestion) = auto_allocator::check_allocator_optimization();

if is_optimal {
    println!("✅ Current allocator configuration is optimal");
} else if let Some(advice) = suggestion {
    println!("⚠️  Allocator configuration can be optimized:");
    println!("   {}", advice);
}

Practical Application Scenarios

use auto_allocator;

// Check allocator configuration at application startup
fn check_performance_config() {
    let (is_optimal, suggestion) = auto_allocator::check_allocator_optimization();
     
    if !is_optimal {
        eprintln!("Warning: {}", suggestion.unwrap_or_default());
        eprintln!("Recommend compiling in Release mode for optimal performance");
    }
}

// Validate configuration in CI/CD
fn test_allocator_optimization() {
    let (is_optimal, _) = auto_allocator::check_allocator_optimization();
    assert!(is_optimal, "Allocator configuration not optimized to best state");
}

Performance Notes

This function needs to re-detect hardware and compare allocators, with slightly higher overhead than simple information retrieval functions.
