Still not tested, and time flies. It would indeed deserve some testing but it's hard to suggest users to try a different allocator in prod, and from experience, synthetic tests generally provide very different patterns than production (traffic speed-ups and slow-downs, reloads, dynamic updates, etc), which is often what matters the most. Maybe we should start a discussion on the github pages about allocators, how to test them and share feedback. That could possibly encourage some users to give them a try on a less busy day. > I'm not the guy to check this as it's far from my knowledge and experience. > I fully understand when it's not possible. No problem. In my case it's a matter of time and priorities. There are so many things to finish and fix that this one is still, sadly, less important. Thanks for the reminder! Willy
