# Dual thread allocator example

> Inspect the usage reports of the dual thread allocator.

This example uses the memory usage reports that Unity writes to the log when you close the Player or Unity Editor. To create this reports, use the `-log-memory-performance-stats` command line argument. To find your project’s log files, follow the instructions on the [log files](/engine/6000.6/manual/scripting/debugging-and-diagnostics/log-files.md) page.

## Customize block size

You can customize the block sizes of the two dynamic heap allocators:


**Main Allocator, with a custom value for Shared Thread Block Size:**

## Usage report example

The usage report contains information for all three parts of the allocator. For example:

```lang-plain
[ALLOC_DEFAULT] Dual Thread Allocator
  Peak main deferred allocation count 135
    [ALLOC_BUCKET]
      Large Block size 4.0 MB
      Used Block count 1
      Peak Allocated bytes 3.3 MB
    [ALLOC_DEFAULT_MAIN]
      Peak usage frame count: [16.0 MB-32.0 MB]: 8283 frames, [32.0 MB-64.0 MB]: 1 frames
      Requested Block Size 16.0 MB
      Peak Block count 2
      Peak Allocated memory 53.3 MB
      Peak Large allocation bytes 40.2 MB
    [ALLOC_DEFAULT_THREAD]
      Peak usage frame count: [64.0 MB-128.0 MB]: 8284 frames
      Requested Block Size 16.0 MB
      Peak Block count 2
      Peak Allocated memory 78.3 MB
      Peak Large allocation bytes 47.3 MB
```

> **Note:**
>
> The **Peak main deferred allocation count** is the number of items in a deletion queue. The main thread must delete any allocation it made. If another thread deletes an allocation, Unity adds that allocation to a queue. The allocation waits in the queue for the main thread to delete it. It's then counted as a deferred allocation.
