   6  * The standard malloc/free wastes too much space for objects, partly because
   7  * it maintains all the allocation infrastructure (which isn't needed, since
   8  * we never free an object descriptor anyway), but even more because it ends
   9  * up with maximal alignment because it doesn't know what the object alignment
  10  * for the new allocation is.
