Perhaps phkmalloc could be made self-tuning with regards to 'H'; I doubt many people know when to use that feature. For example, you might have a heuristic where phkmalloc detects that the program has been running for a long time or has called malloc() and free() many times, so it starts using madvise() on some free pages.
