# Usage

Keep in mind that as of today, `GlobalAlloc` is only available in nightly,
hidden behind the [`global_allocator`][2] feature flag.

```rust
#![feature(global_allocator)]
extern crate tcmalloc;

use tcmalloc::TCMalloc;

#[global_allocator]
static GLOBAL: TCMalloc = TCMalloc;
```

Also note that you can only define one *global* allocator per crate.
