:well, that's quite different.  randomizing mmap offsets gives a real random 
distribution over the whole userland address space.  allocating more and then 
offsetting within this allocation still gives a deterministic order of 
allocated memory locations, just the padding between those varies.

    Randomizing mmap offsets that much will fragment user virtual memory
    and cause the program to run out of space if it uses mmap() heavily.
    I really dislike the concept.
