Hi, I'm writing my CS thesis about various memory allocator. I found various re= sources about jemalloc but I think some of these are old. I wanted to kindl= y ask if you could give me some information regarding malloc()/free()/reall= oc(). I already contacted the developers on the official gitter and they provided= me useful resources but I was wondering since this allocator is also used = on FreeBSD (since this is practically where it was born), if someone more e= xperienced than me could give me some explanations regarding the implementa= tion of these functions. Also, any anecdotes about the history of this allocator and FreeBSD would b= e greatly appreciated. Greetings, Valerio Besozzi
