This is interesting. I wonder who the "other allocator" was. I think this would benefit from direct comparison with jemalloc, glibc and others. It would also be interesting to observe the effects of different "page" sizes (a better name than "pages" wouldn't go amiss either).


If Microsoft did this, can they just use it as HeapAlloc implementation?
