Hi :
I found that XFree86-3.1.2 for FreeBSD-2.0.5 linked with gnumalloc,
and -lgnumalloc had been added into config/FreeBSD.cf.
And I found that the memory useage for stuffs linked with gnu-
malloc (especially X-server) use much fewer memory than before.
I read some discussions in the hacker mailing-list, they said
that gnumalloc use memory better but is slower (b'cos use sbrk),
and there are still bsd-malloc, dl-malloc, phk-malloc.
which one will become default malloc in the future ?
