microsoft/mimalloc#997 is still open.
Though it's in v3.0.3, that version appears to be a beta release.
Latest release : v3.0.3 (beta) (2025-03-28).
Does this affect 6.1? If so, I'm a bit concerned about the implications of a fully released toolchain and SDK switching to using beta libraries in its runtimes.
Does this affect 6.2? If so, will the fix be in a proper release of mimalloc by the time 6.2 is released?

This isn't going to 6.1, its too late for that. Maybe 6.1.1, but I don't think that this is urgent there. I'd like this to go to 6.2 as well. This library is only used by the compiler not the runtime. The runtime still uses the system allocator. While it is interesting to consider the swap there, I don't think that is an immediate priority. We are currently on 3.0.1, which was arguably "alpha". The big changes here are related to enabling ARM64 support. |
