After reading "C++ Memory Management: From Fear to Triumph" series, I think they are must-read articles for memory management. I'd like to know what else must-read articles I shouldn't miss.
Thanks!

Although not really an article, I think the Boost smart_ptr library documentation has some good information on C++ memory management. It is of course biased to the Boost library but I think you will get some good ideas out of it.

@Charles, No it is Herb Sutter. I think Scott Meyer's Effective C++ series also has memory management related items. But, not sure.

Read and learn well about RAII idiom, Resource Acquisition Is Initialization from articles like the two below:
- Memory and Resource Management by Stephen C. Dewhurst
- Resource Acquisition is Initialization - Modern C++ Style - A Conversation with Bjarne Stroustrup, Part II

Andrei Alexandrescu has also something to say in his Modern C++ Design Book. You'd probably interested in
- Chapter 4. Small-Object Allocation
- Chapter 7. Smart Pointers
Despite the fact that practical value of Andrei's techniques considered controversial, you definitely will learn some new and interesting stuff from this book.

It's criticized by C++ community (some part of, not by me) for using unnecessary "clever" techniques.
