FYI,
I have a plan to redesign anon volatile range by some reasons.
In old version, I have been working with Jason who is jemalloc author
and he has a very interested in anon volatile.

I saw 2x faster with certain webserver workload with jemalloc which is
tweaked by Jason and me. Even, I have a plan to enhance it much higher.
If this topic is selected and I will be there,
I will share it with pleasure.

Thanks.
