Another option is to use jemalloc[1] instead. Better performance with threads. It'z possible to use via .so injection with ld_preload.

Maintain a system with low entropy, always means injecting more energy from the outside. Because the entropy in an adiabatic(closed) system always increases. Sometimes the energy cost/(effort) can be higher than the benefit, or the cos
