While I love mimalloc, I'm surprised to see jemalloc/tcmalloc not scaling up, and slower than glibc... something is off here!

    Not surprising assuming tcmalloc is gperftools tcmalloc. Jemalloc OSS isn’t maintained and neither is gperftools (very old techniques). Tcmalloc has a new OSS variant that’s built using bazel but likely not what's benchmarked here.
