Ulrich,
> No malloc can work perfectly in all situations....
That is the point. This change had no statistical basis proving that it improved
the malloc behavior on average (at least I'm not aware of any papers on the

> Aside, you are not reporting anything about current releases.
Correct me in I'm wrong, but this change is in the current release.
