/* An object allocator for Python.
Here is an introduction to the layers of the Python memory architecture,
showing where the object allocator is actually used (layer +2), It is
called for every object allocation and deallocation (PyObject_New/Del),
unless the object-specific allocators implement a proprietary allocation
scheme (ex.: ints use a simple free list). This is also the place where
the cyclic garbage collector operates selectively on container objects.

/*
* Allocation strategy abstract:
*
* For small requests, the allocator sub-allocates <Big> blocks of memory.
* Requests greater than 256 bytes are routed to the system's allocator.
*
* Small requests are grouped in size classes spaced 8 bytes apart, due
* to the required valid alignment of the returned address. Requests of
* a particular size are serviced from memory pools of 4K (one VMM page).
* Pools are fragmented on demand and contain free lists of blocks of one
* particular size class. In other words, there is a fixed-size allocator
* for each size class. Free pools are shared by the different allocators
* thus minimizing the space reserved for a particular size class.
*
* This allocation strategy is a variant of what is known as "simple
* segregated storage based on array of free lists". The main drawback of
* simple segregated storage is that we might end up with lot of reserved
* memory for the different free lists, which degenerate in time. To avoid
* this, we partition each free list in pools and we share dynamically the
* reserved space between all free lists. This technique is quite efficient
* for memory intensive programs which allocate mainly small-sized blocks.
*
* For small requests we have the following table:
*
* Request in bytes Size of allocated block Size class idx
* ----------------------------------------------------------------
* 1-8 8 0
* 9-16 16 1
* 17-24 24 2
* 25-32 32 3
* 33-40 40 4
* 41-48 48 5
* 49-56 56 6
* 57-64 64 7
* 65-72 72 8
* ... ... ...
* 241-248 248 30
* 249-256 256 31
*
* 0, 257 and up: routed to the underlying allocator.
