Ah, right, thanks! It seems that upstream does not enable jemalloc by default, but we do in Fedora. Thats good, and sorry for the noise!

bundling of jemalloc
Firefox and xulrunner are bundling their own copy of jemalloc (try strings /usr/lib64/xulrunner/xulrunner |grep jemalloc, or similarly with /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox-bin). Why isn't this recorded in the RPM provides (and why is there no mention of jemalloc in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries)? Are there any other known cases outside Mozilla products? I found bug 788500 about unbundling jemalloc from redis.
