Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

This is a general purpose allocator. It is a drop-in replacement for malloc and can be used in other programs without code changes. Performance characteristics in comparison to allocators like tcmalloc 2.7, jemalloc 5.2.1 and glibc 2.31 is favorable, with generally 6% or better in timing, depending on the particular workload.
