If only all system allocators were all so good. . . :/
Actually there are a few even better ones, tcmalloc comes to mind, also iirc jemalloc, and if I remember right nedmalloc is the best (at least in tests done my mozilla) though it may also have been jemalloc, can’t remember for sure.
You know what? The nouns in use made me think this was an article on system malloc in general, but taking another look I guess it must be all info on dlmalloc.
