1. A method of managing memory allocations in a computer system, the method comprising:

  • tagging a class of data structures with a tag that identifies a longer memory-allocation time for objects that correspond to the class;

    in response to a memory-allocation request for an object, determining whether or not the object is associated with the tag through the class;

    if the object is not associated with the tag, allocating memory for the object from a first memory-allocation area that corresponds to a shorter memory-allocation time; and

    if the object is associated with the tag, allocating memory for the object from a second memory-allocation area that corresponds to the longer memory-allocation time.
