I tested v1 on a Haswell system with 64 sockets/1024 cores/2048 threads
and 8TB of RAM, with a 1TB malloc.  The average free() time for a 1TB
malloc on a vanilla kernel was 41.69s, the patched kernel averaged
21.56s for the same test.

I am testing v2 now and will report back with results in the next day or
so.
