Techniques for memory management may include: allocating, from an allocation pool, buffers for logs used by processing cores; recording messages in the logs for the processing cores; responsive to filling a first buffer included in a first log used to record messages for a first of the plurality of processing cores, allocating a second buffer of the allocation pool for the first log; adding the second buffer to the first list of buffers for the first log; and adding the first buffer, that is included in the first list for the first log, to the allocation pool, wherein after adding the first buffer to the allocation pool, the first buffer is included in the first list of buffers for the first log and also included in the allocation pool. The buffers may be included in a distributed global memory portion of the same computing module as the processing cores.
