Houdini:

When OPENVDB_ENABLE_RPATH is ON, the location of libopenvdb_houdini is now added to the rpath of all Houdini dsos.

Build:

Jemalloc is now the preferred allocator of choice on all platforms when CONCURRENT_MALLOC is set to Auto.

Idclip commented 9 months ago

RPath change looks good to me.

On Windows, we follow SideFX's example in using Tbbmalloc due to the challenges of injecting into the Windows runtime to replace the system allocator.

Has this situation changed now?

Support for Jemalloc on windows is significantly better now and vcpkg has a native build port. This also removes the platform dependent branching. Unless @jmlait has any concerns I think this is now a better default choice (CI is passing too)
