This is cool, but one problem I have with this is that unless you
sweep, the "free" objects don't get returned to the C allocator (you
don't call C's free() on them).  Then, when you go to allocate new
objects, the "free list" is essentially an unsorted bag of
different-sized chunks.


It is not "an unsorted bag of different-sized chunks."
The treadmills are segregated into size classes.
