It's in /usr/src/UPDATING though ;). See the 20000709 entry:
        phk made the malloc default options AJ.  This may slow things
        down and uncover other latent bugs in the code.  If you need to
        run at full speed, you can disable this by doing the following:
                ln -s aj /etc/malloc.conf
