Sorry, but that site was a waste of time to me. There are tons of other
"heap managers" -read malloc() implementations- out there, many of them
free software, and most of them better than those of Microsoft.
It's one of the reasons non-MS OSes usually run faster. I'll take
amply-tested open software solutions, like Lua or a GNU malloc, over
some obscure proprietary product with rather absurd claims.
