but we all can agree that glibc is trash right? :)
I’d be careful extrapolating from just one benchmark but generally if I had to choose I’d pick the new tcmalloc if I could. It seems to be a higher quality codebase.
The problem with the current tcmalloc, which I agree is very good, is the difficulty of integrating it with random builds. It works well for large systems and especially those that are already bazelized, but I couldn't whip up a quick way to link it to `jq` in this gist.
